I’m totally sick and tired hearing about going green. It has become a catch all phrase for all things politically correct concerning our living environment.
Big corporations are falling over themselves to fall in line to show a dubious public that they care about you all. Small ‘mom and pop’ businesses on the other hand are slow to ‘upgrade’ to a much more expensive proposition.
Our illustrious politicians are considering implementing new mandatory guidelines to meet world treaty demands. The world continues to turn and the sun continues to rise and set and God still is in command but the cry to us peons is that if we do nothing we are doomed.
What a bunch of B.S.! The truth is that the United Nations and all associated and willing cronies are out to establish a one world government and ultimately have full and absolute control over our lives.
No i am no whack job conspiracy nut just a realist who can plainly see the real intent of the rich and powerful. The end game is ALWAYS the same with these neocrats and that is POWER and MONEY.
Have you noticed, it is always ‘WE’ have to make changes, ‘WE’ have to sacrifice, ‘WE’ have to adapt, not them, they are above the fray in their private and privileged domain.
Now the big push is for mandatory use of LED light bulbs. Incandescent bulbs are old and antiquated and need to be replaced with these new and simply wonderful ‘Green’ alternative. We are told that they will not burn-out for many years and that their very cost effective and that they will cure cancer…….OOPS; not yet. What the government desk jockey’s won’t tell you is that when dropped they explode emit poisonous gasses. They are extremely expensive and they aren’t as bright as the good old incandescent.
LED bulbs have been on the market for years so we aren’t talking about a new product. What we are talking about is a new push for a product that most Americans simply don’t want. Philips Electronics the leading producer of the LED has recently drastically reduced their prices in order to achieve more sales. Of course if asked their spokesman might tell you that with new technological break-through production costs have been reduced thus a lower retail cost. I believe it is obvious these producers are overstocked and need to cut their inventory even though our government continues it’s massive push for LED.
The American public has spoken with silence at the cash register and now an agitated and power hungry elite are poised to do what they do best, pass another law and be dammed what the citizens want.
Mr. and Mrs. politician you may want to reconsider who really owns this country, great citizens who pay your wages and keep you in office, or you may find the lights going out on your career.
