    Who is "you people"?

    My name for the MSM is perfectly appropriate.

    'You people' are the easily manipulated. Always kept angry or upset about one thing or another. Are you still mad about the incandescent light bulbs going away?

    Not sure if it is ignorance about what constitutes an academic paper, real science or just a stubborn belief that “the left” has to be wrong “because………”.

    We are not the ones trying to suppress free inquiry and debate.

    Who is "you people"? I'd say that you're describing "Democrat for life" voters who love Marxism.

    Yup. You're definitely describing "Democrat for life" voters who love Marxism.

    It's sad that people are okay with their government being able to do that.

    They didn't "go away." They were prohibited by law for absurd reasons.

    Regulate substances which are proven harmful to the citizens of the country?

    I'm thankful, not sad.

    What substances that have proven unilaterally harmful to citizens of this country have not been regulated?

    No one has ever produced any credible empirical evidence that incandescent light bulbs are harmful to the citizens of the country, nor will anyone ever be doing so.

    Which is the normal and rightful response to injury by fools.

    They use more energy. They burn hot, forcing AC units to work harder than they need to.

    This is not difficult.

    Meh! I got to the point that if that lot want to waste their money on inefficient light bulbs they can - they are only a minority. The rest of us will get on with saving the planet. Mind you, for the most part it is the same people who send Trump money and then grizzle about how they are economically disadvantaged

    They keep furnaces from working harder than they need to in cold weather/climates! LOL

    I’m fine with more energy efficient lighting options. Elimination of standard wattage incandescents will make life a bit more difficult for those of us who feed you, but there’s no call for anger. I’ve found spending that energy on preparing for the difficulties the “ban” presents is much more productive than anger.

    It's harmful to the environment and it's harmful to the country's energy consumption.

    Do you really need this explained to you?
