OH! Bag politics are quite the rage right now. In some storms, grocery, you get a choice of paper, plastic, or the bags you bring in. But, then you get into places like Boulder where you will now pay a “bag tax” if you use a plastic bag because they are bad for the environment.

Liberals are so freaking confused. We had to switch to plastic because paper bags were destroying the forests. Then we had to bring back paper because they were more environmentally friendly. Now we have to use reusable bags because they are the “most” environmentally friendly. Except reusable bags are not clean, and spread things like salmonella and e-coli.

We are in a mess here.

Yes, and you have to carry them with you to the store.
ALL of my plastic bags are reused, either to store things here in the house or for bagging tubes of ice that I sell to the neighbors, fishermen, and juice vendors.
