Careful, we have some here that don’t take to kindly
to conservatism for any reason.

Being conservative must have something to do with being a liberal
or something.

Yeah, I can see that, thanks.
Some very narrow minded people out there.
What they don't know is that some of the most staunch conservatives are also conservationists, and I don't mean tree huggers.

Probably the same ones who complain when they go fishing and catch plastic bags. And growing trees for paper bags is an enormous waste. The same land could be used for growing food or some other crop. Now some myopic people will call me a tree hugger just for that reason. Well, I heat my home with firewood, and my son has a lumber business I helped him start. I just see better uses for trees than making paper. There are actually many other fibrous plants that can be used for paper.

Sure we need plastic bags, and we need paper bags. I'm not saying we should ban either, in fact I'm against banning them. I say enforce litter laws and recycling.

Nothing liberal about it.
