In 2011, Ryan voted to roll back light-bulb efficiency standards that had reinvigorated the domestic lighting industry and that significantly reduce energy waste and carbon pollution. [Roll Call 563, 7/12/11]

LOL what a waste. We still can't buy those old school incandescent light bulbs.

More proof that Ryan billy bob is just a a stupid shill.

He voted but what good did he do? NOT MUCH.

A look into the future. Ryan to vote for lots of things. But will accomplish NOTHING.

I don't care if they create a light bulb that give electricity back to the power company. I don't want the government involved in what I buy, if I use more electricity I will pay for it.

asthmatics and COPD sufferers inhalers?

Try taking 10,000 IU of Vitamin D3 a day for several months which is basically no different than correcting vitamin D deficiency anyway since that is the standard treatment for correcting deficiency but the protocol for treatment is very outdated unfortunately.

I believe that severe vitamin D deficiency is the root cause for asthma in the first place... Remember Sun Scare bullshit?

Re: Paul Ryan Voted To Eliminate Light Bulb Efficiency Standards
the artificial boost in CFL manufacturing has severally damaged the LED bulb market, which is considerably more efficient and safe than the CFL.

The government's meddling is hurting a more efficient product. Go figure.

I was just going to say something similar.

If anyone doubts it, there is a government website that explains the whole convoluted procedure. If any of you doubters break one of those things, get your children out of the house immediately.

Funny how the liberals care more for the outside environment than they do for the inside environment of people's homes.

I refuse to use them, mainly because obama, et al. is trying to force me to do so. I keep buying normal light bulbs to have for the day when they the edict comes down against them. Hopefully that won't happen due to obama being kicked to the curb.

Go Paul Ryan!

There two kinds of people in this country. Those who take the time to keep themselves educated and those who blindly follow Fox News and their contemporaries. Those who realize that we're only as strong as our weakest link and those who think it's ok to kick the less fortunate to the side. Those who do the right thing because they know that they have to answer to a higher authority and those who believe it's ok to do anything they want as long as they can justify what they do as answering to said higher authority.

Good. That will help invigorate the light bulb industry. I'm sure most people know you can make light bulbs that never burn out, but if you do that, the light bulb manufacturers won't make nearly as much money as they can with light bulbs that are designed to burn out after a set number of hours.

Someone just told me he voted for the patriot act.

This morning on the news the USDA wasted 69 million dollars and Romeny/Ryan are trying to figure out how to cut spending on welfare and medicare.

Why don't they just clean up GSA and USDA and every other govt. office and put the money back in Social Security and Medicare where it was supposed to be in the first friggin place?

They act like we are to stupid to realize every govt. office is wasting money, but the citizens who paid into Social Security and Medicaid are supposed to take cut backs.

They're whole message sounds like Hope and Change to me and it will likely pan out like the last Hope and Change, if they get in office.

because 69 million is peanuts

Medicare / medicaid is a 120 trillion unfunded liability mess.
