California Requires Residents To Use Mercury Light Bulbs...

What's up with this... California requires residents to use mercury light bulbs instead of incandescent light bulbs. The mercury light bulbs are dangerous and hazardous if they break. Maybe the government has already broke to many and it is effecting their thinking.

Who is going to pay for the medical bills from the mercury damage done to their bodies? Who is going to pay for the clean up in about ten or so years.? Who is going to pay for the eye damage from a low light source that effects seniors reading? Let's hope some laws are passed to repeal this mercury light bulb nonsense or at least that the rest of the country doesn't have to pay for their clean up and medical bills.

If California was really such a green state they wouldn't be requiring their residents to buy something so dangerous to people and the state. These bulbs can't even be made in the US because they are so hazardous with the mercury. What's up with this?
