wondering what a cogent argument in opposition

The first argument is that there is no cogent argument FOR the new law.

You could also say such recyclable packaging won't hold the product fresh as long as it will decompose, shortening the supply chain. Instead of an expiration date, your milk will come with a "leak by" date.

“The first argument is that there is no cogent argument FOR the new law. “

One could argue there is a cost for the proper disposal of these various packaging products. And that God charged us to take care of the earth.

And that levying what is essentially a tax on the purveyors of it will pay for proper disposal.

OF COURSE that cost is passed on to the ultimate consumer.
