How long do you think it will be before the EPA goes after those sources as well?

A fluorescent light bulb with pinch of mercury is considered eco friendly these days, and a bit of lead is evil unless it is comes by way of Chinese toys.

Go figure.

I'm pretty sure we have right up until the moment that sealed lead acid batteries become obsolete.

Probably not even then. Lead is used everywhere, and recycled everywhere.

Liberal gun control activists are a victim of their own success here; creating a lead shortage to enforce a bullet ban is no longer in the cards.
