The mandated use of CFL was poorly thought out, without adequate consideration of practical matters, like what about all that mercury in the landfills when 2% of people dispose of them properly. Yes, mandated, as the plan is to eliminate incandescent lights.

I predict there will be a disposal fee/tax connected with all CFL bulbs to help defray part of the expense of disposal that has been utterly disregarded.

Just because "liberals" think they know best, does not necessarily make it so. Sort of ironic that they call themselves liberals in the first place if you ask me, bit of a misnomer.
Funny, people with poor sight need bright lights to see & read and I wonder if the mandated "change" has more to do with lining pockets like the banning of Freon was.. Kinda odd that the patent was about to run out and someone desides that it shouldn't, and just happened to have a new product and patent to replaced freon.....
I chose to buy CFL bulbs based on the amount of time they last & brightness. If I can get brighter bulbs that last 3 times as long, I'm willing to pay for it..
