Everything old is new again. Many moons ago I worked in a grocery store that only had paper bags. Then one day this brilliant ones came up with the program to ‘save the trees.’ Paper or plastic was born. Most people I know reuse the plastic bags over and over and over. Paper bags are back! Did you know that those reusable canvas tote bags now being pushed are a major source of bacteria? I’m sure Utopia is just within reach.

All that will happen here is that some entrepreneur will come up with a 1,000-bag container that you keep in the back of your car, and when entering the grocery....you will tote ten of them into the store with you.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. In the old days, it was paper bags. Now we’re going back there and the tree huggers are going to scream.

Liberalism is stupidity.

“..... grocery store that only had paper bags”

Who made their own book covers from paper bags? How many had waste baskets that were nothing more than a stout paper bag?

Who neatly folded and saved their paper bags for future use? EVERYONE!

“Save the trees!” Liberal IDIOTS don’t realize that “trees” are a CROP! (that you don’t have to cultivate, water, or fertilize), they just grow.

...Paper or plastic was born...

And if you are asked if you prefer prefer paper or plastic, and you answer, “It doesn’t matter,” does that mean that
you are “bisacksual?”
