In NY CITY, the garbage inspectors have metal detectors to make sure all metal is placed in the appropriate bin. If they get one beep, landlord gets a fine.
How does one trow out a light bulb?
Paint brush?
Plastic hanger with metal parts?

It’s such a chore throwing out garbage in NYC. They’re so OCD about recycling, oh wait... it’s the fines that are an incentive to keep this sham going.

Yep.

Driving through Iowa a few years back, stopping about every 12 miles at a toll booth, I hear an advertisement from the Gov. telling me Iowa needed the tolls to build new toll booths.
