They are already living with it. Energy prices are high and everything is recycled. You need to separate your garbage into four or five different parts and you have large bins scattered everywhere for the disposal of glass bottles—one for brown, one for green, one for clear, etc. Everyone brings in their plastic bottles to the grocery stores and feed them into recycling machines. No more incadescent bulbs. The Greens have their foot on the necks of the people. I doubt many Americans—at least today—would tolerate such nonsense.
Don’t be knocking the recycling machines. Helps me cut down on my food bills, and gives me a little cigarette money. Heck,it’s an extra 5 or 6€ per week. If I’m feeling industrious, I take my cargo bike and do a bottle round-up, like I did today. I reckon I made about € 25 for 1 1/2 hours work, and it was a nice day for riding, too. Not bad.
“I doubt many Americans—at least today—would tolerate such nonsense.”
- 2.5gpm shower heads.
- toilets that won’t flush.
- no more 100w incandescent light bulbs.
Who SAYS they won’t “tolerate such nonsense”?
- Just sayin’....
