If they enacted subsidies for LED bulbs he’d have a conniption about government spending on hippie bullshit

Yes, clearly being opposed to the government banning the sale of certain lightbulbs and suggesting it instead subsidize more environmentally-friendly models to incentivize their adoption directly translates into a desire to roll coal and slash all funding of nonessential government programs. Excellent inference.
