On the January 15 show, PERC research fellow Shawn Regan discussed the political origins of the incandescent light bulb ban with Detroit’s personality and radio show host Frank Beckmann.
“When we see these regulations, we tend to think that environmnetalists are pushing them and that’s the extent of it, but what we’ve found here at PERC…it’s really these coalitions of groups that are behind the scenes…When you start to see these coaltions [industry and environmentalists] come together saying that these regulations will solve all our problems, we’d better watch out because it is probably green cronyism in disguise.”
