Anybody with half a brain KNOWS the new bulbs contain Mercury. So while saving energy they are toxic for land fills and life as we know it.
We did NOT have that problem with the old bulbs. So you are saving a penny a month and killing the planet. That makes YOU the fool.
Only the one that have mercury are the fluorescent ones, and despite the fact that their output is much higher than standard fluorescent bulbs, they use far less mercury, and last far longer. So the amount of mercury going into the environment is far less from these bulks than what we have been using for 75 years. But then, you republicunts have never cared about the environment before, so why now?
^Plus. There are recycle stations. And the people too stupid to know how to find them were accounted for in statistics. (that's you OP )
Why do we need recycle stations for light bulbs?
Before the changeover, there were recycle stations where you could drop off your fluorescent bulbs. How is today any different? I really think the problem here is you people somehow believe you have a God-given right to waste finite energy resources. You don't.
I have the God given right to use as much energy that I'm willing to pay for.
No, actually, you do not. And neither do I.

OMG. Really? I suppose you think it grows on trees, eh?
