Newsom Bans Plastic Bags in California Stores, After 10-Year Single-use Plastic Bag Ban Fails
Breitbart ^ | 09/23/2024 | Joel B Pollack

Posted on 09/23/2024 6:04:15 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed a bill into law on Sunday that bans the use of plastic bags at grocery stores — after the state’s ten-year-old ban on single-use plastic bags was shown to have made plastic pollution even worse.

Newsom’s office buried the news in a press release on Sunday in which it failed to identify the legislation as a plastic bag ban. The press release simply identified the law as “SB 1053 by Senator Catherine Blakespear (D-Encinitas) – Solid waste: recycled paper bags: standards: carryout bag prohibition.” It was one of dozens of bills Newsom signed.

It’s always about Control. There are things you Must do and things you are Forbidden to do. And sometimes the positions oscillate.

More about money. You can bet someone somewhere is benefiting. I looked into the Howard County, MD plastic bag ban and sure enough....the county is incentivized to sell more bags. They made so much money off the sale of multi use plastic bags that they hired an administrator and paid for county pet “environmental” projects.

Newsom will say that he’s going to make the sun go away.

He’ll go outside at dusk.

All the press will be there.

He’ll do a little dance and shake some feathers.

The sun will go down.

The press will claim he can perform miracles.

The Democrat Party Organized Crime families will give him and the press money.

When traveling remember to bring plastic bags.

The paper bags the stores give instead rip easily and can’t be stored in pockets.

Is this bag ban a help for growers? Will we have to go back to cutting trees?

Maybe I should get my hemp bags out again?
Stronger than anything. One bag will hold as much
weight as one can lift. I just forget to bring them from the car.

Nuts. I use those plastic grocery bags to line the little trash cans by the beds and the couch in the TV room. Now I gotta buy them from Hefty? Maybe Hefty is a Newsom donor.

I line all the trash cans in my place with plastic bag and use them for dog poop. Now California will ensure more bags are used now that everyone will have to purchase disposable one use trash bags and poop bags. How come.no matter what democrats do it never hurts “women and people of color” most?

An economist should study how many cars are stolen and people mugged fussing around with paper bags if they only have street parking. I can carry all my groceries in one go with plastic bags. 2 max with paper.

A burlap sack can be used to haul groceries. or as clothing. I think Marilyn Monroe modeled one years ago.

When Kamala and Tampon Tim nationalize the grocery business, nobody will need a bag anyway since there’ll be nothing to buy.
