Didn’t they force plastic bags on us for the “ecology” after Jimmy Carter’s gas shortage?
Doesn’t anyone remember that?
I remember Carter. Actually, he gave us so much to remember I don’t remember that. I do remember learning that paper bags took trees, that paper in a land fill, buried in dirt, did not decompose, that you could read a buried newspaper 50 years later.
I think the idea here is to get everyone to carry their own bags to the store but the part about favoring paper over plastic is the perplexing part.
Yep!
Then, the greenies were buying their cloth bags from I THINK Whole Foods. Come to find that some of them had lead in them.
It must be REALLY DIFFICULT to be a liberal...there's a boogie man around every corner.....
I remember. We were not supposed to use paper because we would kill a tree. This is just another manufactured crisis, the government can’t help you if there isn’t something wrong, so there must always be something to scream about. We need to get rid of the frickin’ left and the sooner the better.
