A little off the topic of real estate for the moment, today's post is a video by Southeast Texas' own Ted Poe. Did you receive a voice mail from him today? I did. The message did what it was supposed to do. That is, get me to watch this video.
Have you seen it? The video of Congressman Ted Poe addressing congress about the new energy saving light bulbs? Over five million people have seen it on you tube. Maybe not a comedian outright, Poe has some humorous points. The video is about five minutes long. If you've got five minutes go ahead and watch. You'll learn something you didn't know about lightbulbs. I promise.
The speech shows how good ideas can be marred by bureaucracy. Just listen to the EPA instructions for disposing of a broken light bulb.
So how does this all relate to real estate in Southeast Texas? Here's how. Energy prices- the high energy prices- are having an effect on real estate sales. Right now its not a good effect. Sales have slowed. The election will have an effect on real estate. The candidate you support will vote for legislation that effects real estate. Today's post is just about being knowledgeable. Your vote will have an impact on the future of real estate sales in Southeast Texas. Now, who likes those new incandescent light bulbs?
