Mrs. Charm says she was not surprised that the pols rescinded the ban on Mr. Edison’s incandescent light bulbs at the last minute. I am, a little.
The incredible stupidity of this whole thing, however, is that the economic horse has already been stolen. The ban was rescinded only after the incandescent bulb factories were shut down, people had lost their jobs and retailers had stocked up on the new bulbs which will now be hard to sell.
And, BTW, the ban is not rescinded permanently, oh no, but only until Sept. 30, 2012.
The Obumbles Depression wanders on, ever in search of new ways to kill jobs.
