Supposing all that is true, why can't you sell your product to me, using selling points that relate to my values, rather than have it forced upon me based upon what you say my values should be?If people were flocking to buy CFLs, then there would really have been no need to ban incandescents. Market demand would have take care of that.Given that people were flocking to buy them for years before the ban, you look kind of crazy for calling such a raging free market success a failure.
There are so many sufferers of light bulb derangement syndrome on parade here. Like I said, they've gone hysterical after the environmentalists scored yet another very public success.
It's sort of a libertarian thing in general. They base their market predictions on their near-religious beliefs, instead of on facts and data. Hence the real world always smacks them down, hence they have to retreat into their fantasy worlds.
But they really weren't flocking to them. You just made that part up so the rest of your smear of people who distrust loathsome central planner bullies like you would work itself out.
CFLs are already way out of date.
Why the fixation on old technology when trying to defend old technology?
Bloody hell; I've already linked to the FOB price of the LED units, where to buy them and the exporter will arrange shipping for the inexperienced.
Go do something about it.
The mandates and deadlines cost us jobs and technology advantages.
The cost savings being so obvious, why the need to outlaw a bulb?
And the idea of closing coal plants before you have a plan could be deadly..
Like when folks see their winter heating bills GO UP by 5 or 8% without those 100% efficient incandescent bulbs in their sockets....
No, high wages cost you jobs as it's cheaper to produce in China and ship them to the states.
You can't invest in the technology because you're way too late; China beat you to it.
This thread explains why government needs to get rid of the bulb. You have far too many idiots.
Winter heating bills? Moronic argument.
Imagine a space heater using 1,500 w, or running 150, old style 100w bulbs.
It may get a little bright when you warm up your room.
Sunglasses, anyone?

Why do you liberals have such sucky sales skills?
And I have no idea why your sales skill suck.Supposing all that is true, why can't you sell your product to me, using selling points that relate to my values, rather than have it forced upon me based upon what you say my values should be?

I have no clue why Americans are so stuck in the mud on this issue.
You'd think the most powerful nation of earth would be way ahead of other countries on this but you are, as you were with mobile phones, way down the field.
The prices are high in the states because the importers keep them high.
In a country where capitalism claims to be king, you'd think someone would have set up shop by now and beat these guys at their own game.
I guess there ARE a lot of light bulb activists here.

Obviously you folks are big shovers... You want THANKS? For killing jobs and forcing a market in FAILED Cfls?

suck it up bulb activists. Obama & the EPA have won this battle. Time to move on.
...said the activist. Move on sport. We can't afford to keep all those wasteful incandescent bulbs buring in this great nation.
Nice bail of straw, sport.a libertarian would demand the right to have a nuclear reactor on their property in extremis

Just told you -- they were only wasteful about 4 months of year in hot climates.
NOW -- you can Bust the grid with your plug-in battery wagons? Mandating that as well are you? Better waste more tax money QUICKLY --- before the Fuel Cell vehicles exposes "plugging in" for the ridiculous solution that it is...
