as replacements? Part of cap and trade is a stipulation that the building code in CA be met before a home can be sold. If you need to replace the toilet, you can only buy toilets that save water. If you need to replace your washing machine and all you could buy were energy efficient washing machines that is what you would buy? Why do the same manufacturers offer both with the old fashioned energy guzzlers at a much lower price than the energy efficient ones?

Soon the only light bulbs available will be energy efficient. Manufacturers can only stay in business if they offer what the people want. Appliances and fixtures only last 10-15 years. Couldn’t homes become green with the free market rather than forcing such expenses on people who can’t afford to do it all at the same time?

No. People are cheap, companies are cheap, green is not cheap.

The country would go green rather quickly if green products were affordable.
The people of this country would be much healthier if healthy and all natural foods were not more expensive than the sugar and corn syrup laden concoctions presented at eye level on grocery store shelves.
The fuel crisis would be solved in a hurry if automakers produced a car with good mileage, that looked good, that had power, and gave the impression of personal safety. Instead, we have the smart cars that are completely ugly, are slow as snails, too scary for commuting in most cities, and are stupidly expensive.
Is that the way to sell the American public on anything?
