They know better than you do

Mark Steyn:

Steven Chu, the Energy Secretary who came into office saying “we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe“, has now offered up another soundbite for our times. On Friday, he defended the ban on Edison’s iconic incandescent in economic terms: “We are taking away a choice that continues to let people waste their own money.”

As if CFL’s were any kind of answer. It’s really become very annoying that these smart people with advanced degrees, who have never worked a day in their lives outside the political/university complex, think they are entitled to run other people’s lives.

One of the great issues of our time is how to undo the damage inflicted by the political/media/university axis. But how do you undo religious beliefs?

    I’m surprised he still thinks of it as “our own money”. I can hear Obama coming down the hall now to correct that mistake…!
