Gov. Charlie Baker on Wednesday announced a new public health order related to grocery stores and pharmacies in Massachusetts, which includes a temporary ban on reusable bags.

"From now on, reusable bags are prohibited and all regulations on plastic bag bans are lifted," he said.

The order also prohibits stores from charging for paper and plastic bags while the order is in place.

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh had previously announced the same measures in the city.

Another crazy Democrat Governor. And grocery baggers must wear a condom at all times.

I don’t use my bags in the grocery store.

I take things out to the car in the basket and stack them there.

Then when I get home, I use my bags to move things into the home.

They don’t really get dirty. Things are clean when they are moved
into them, and I don’t get them wet.

I'm going to get my paper grocery bags back!

At long last...

Everything comes full circle. What a long, strange trip it's been.

Just another example of succumbing to the prevalent zeitgeist instead of sound science. And these rats were the original in your face accusers of “anti-science deniers” of climate change and so much else. Keep your finger in the wind RATS, maybe it will blow back hard enough to knock you out. Silly, damnable fools.
