Check out the video posted (HERE) for a humorous take on the governments upcoming ban on incandescent light bulbs. 

In case you live under a rock and have not heard about this yet, the government is forcing us to get rid of perfectly good light bulbs because they are "inefficient and use too much energy" only to replace them with bulbs that are toxic and may cause health problems...is this a good idea?  This is the same government that brought you failed solar power projects that went bankrupt, a bridge to nowhere, a nuclear waste disposal facility at Yucca Mountain that the Obama administration nixed "for policy reasons, not for safety or technical reasons" which is costing the tax payer $11 billion by 2020 for failure to perform to contractual requirements, the collapse of the housing market, a postal system that is considering closing down locations and limiting service to fewer days a week because they cannot operate effectively and efficiently, numerous other scandals, inefficiencies, mistakes, and a national debt that as of December 2, 2011 is currently:


and growing.

President Ronald Reagan once said that "Government is not the solution to our problem government IS the problem".  It's too bad President George W. Bush hadn't followed that same course of thinking and vetoed this nonsensical bill, but he didn't and he signed it, and it will be one more example of his big government styled republican socialism. 


Is this light bulb ban just one more example of big government socialism as the problem?  One more example of government interfering with the free market system and how YOU want to organize YOUR own life and home?  A Rasmussen Poll taken in August 2009 showed that 72% of Americans believe the government has no right to dictate which light bulb they may use.  I'll let you answer that question for yourself, as for me, I'll be heading to the nearest Target to get as many real light bulbs as I can before the ban goes into effect starting with 100 watt bulbs in January 2012 and working through a total phase out by 2014.
