I cna uderstand the 2012 limits, but after that they are making assumes that the tech will double efficanty of bulds. I undestand that it easy to relugalate all at once then pell back if its not possible but I think this is little too far. My other with this is if you can do this to buld why have it not been done to cars and a dozen other this that are drain our resources. I person dont mind the low walt bulds but i know alot of people that just hate them. I guess the law is process the technolony for once as force intevention.

Because this is the lowest hanging fruit, and this bill can actually pass. Even the total wingnuts will have a hard time finding a reason to claim that efficient light bulbs will destroy the economy.

And light bulbs have a short lifespan when compared to cars, so the replacement would happen over a few years rather than a few decades at minimal cost to people (which will end up being cheaper for them in the long term anyway.)
