My Townhall column this weekend is “Another Forced-Innovation Fiasco,” which shows that another congressional cost-cutting measure has gone up in smoke. Here are some relevant links to that article:
- A typical congressional cost-cutting regulation: “Flushing Congress From the Toilet Industry” (Common Sense)
- Katherine Mangu-Ward’s terrific exposé: “Feds Pay $10 Million for $50 Light Bulb” (Reason)
- That innovative, super-efficient diode: “MIT engineers create LED that has 230% efficiency. Thermodynamics laws still in place” (ZME Science)
Oh, and folks: Common Sense publishes every weekday, and, if you sign up for it at right, you can get it in your email box. Why not?
