I was in a Target store yesterday and decided I needed some light bulbs. Walking down the aisle, I discovered my only choices were $30 CFL bulbs made by GE or $45 LED bulbs made by GE. I make a good living but I decided I couldn’t afford to change my bulbs and certainly wasn’t going to give GE any business. It’s sickening to me that changing a burnt out bulb has devolved into a major investment. I honestly don’t know how people with lower incomes are surviving today.
You get more money on welfare than you do if you're a sucker, who works.
That’s precisely why I’ve got a stash of hundreds of 60W, 75W and 100W incandescent bulbs. I smugly used 3 of the 60s yesterday and felt damn good about it.
The worst part is not only are the “new” lights expensive, almost all are imported.
