And when I saw your comment about dog poop, I thought it referred to going to Taco Bell or Chipotle.
Will one penny for each bag (10%) go to The Big Guy?

Bring your own plastic bags and watch the “F”ERS FREAK OUT!

what ever happened to that biodegradable plastic they were making 20 years ago? I thought all plastic bags was made of that by now. As for a use tax on disposable plastic, I have absolutely NO problem with that. We, as a society, make far far too much trash. Much of our “recycling” gets sent to some third world country, and then taken out to sea an dumped. The people who create all this filth ought to pay for it. A hundred years ago, no one had a “waste service” or a recycling center, we recycled ourselves, and what could not be recycled was generated at a much lesser amount. As it stands, our local taxes are paying for waste removal, our federal taxes are paying for “recycling centers” which don’t actually recycle. Let the people who generate the trash bear the cost of dealing with it.
It’s not a fee. The word fee is used to hide what it really is. It’s mandated by the state. It’s a tax, collected by stores.
... requires stores in the state to charge customers 10 cents per plastic bag if shoppers do not bring their own reusable bag ... highly contaminated by all manner of bacteria - the idea place for virtue signalers to use for their just purchased food. Too bad everyone else has to suffer to please the tyranny of the few.
You can buy those types of bags from Amazon. They are cheap and get delivered right to your door in a nice compact box.
And, btw/ where I shop for groceries; Aldi’s, DOES charge you 10c a bag if you don’t bring your own. Nothing wrong with that.

Yes and most of the rest will go to the Big Guy’s Boss in China, where the bags are made.

Thanks! No way will the wife and I bring a collection of dirty and heavy cloth bags for food shopping. I’m going to order. Eff the libs from now until the multiverse ends.
if the rest of the state handles the bag fee at self-checkout like Boulder does now, then the check-out station asks how many bags you “wish to purchase” ... i wish to purchase zero, so that’s how many i indicate ... will continue to do so ... yes, I’m a bag pirate, so sue me or arrest me ...
From I've seen of Colorado of late, Plastic bags are the very least of their problems...
Rigged elections have consequences.
The third world country that took US recycled trash was China - but they got tired of recycling used pizza boxes and dumped the last shipments at sea.
Now all your recycled trash, except metals and heavy cardboard, go to the local landfill or some neighboring town’s landfill.
Generations ago, we burned all of our garbage and trash of which there was very little, since there was almost no packaging.
The best way to eliminate the plastic bag problem is too eliminate Danny Katz and the Rink woman
Yep.
Shouldn’t it e a FELONY for any Public Employee to be in possession of any single use plastic bag then??
Just steal the carts and baskets. The “homeless” do.
