Your logic is impeccable, proving, again, that reason and truth are only occasional partners.

The Code of Federal Regulations now spans tens of thousands of pages, not to mention the tens of thousands of pages of state and local regulations.

When you have that many laws, most of them long since obsolete, the purpose of more laws can only be selective enforcement.

The only people they will be enforced against is the people they can be reasonably sure cannot afford to defend themselves.

If it was a simple screwup or two, making a case out of something like this would be silly. I suspect there is more to this story. If she is contaminating the recycleables with food waste, that means someone else down the line is having to deal with the problem...and everyone else is having to pay the added cost.

On the other hand, they should just put all of their garbage and recycling into one bin and ship it off to some third world country for processing. :)
