Watchdog Politics Examiner: Energy to be rationed under Democrats Global Warming Bill
According to Mr. Ebell, this would be the biggest government intervention in people's lives since the Second World War, which was the last time people had to have rationing coupons in order to buy a gallon of gas.
Did we say "just switch to CFL bulbs"?  Sorry, we meant "replace all your light fixtures and install LEDs"
The mantra thus far has been: “just switch your incandescent to a C.F.L.” That’s going to be replaced by just “switch your incandescent to an LED bulb.”

The problem is the fixtures that replacement lamps are designed to go into. They’re heat traps. Incandescents are not adversely effected by heat, but LEDs and C.F.L.s are. So, it’s important for consumers to become aware of LED systems where the light fixtures are designed around the LED, and this is something that can be done very easily. But, trying to fit the LED incandescent replacement lamp into an incandescent fixture is going to lead to all manner of problems.
