if you had to dig in your garbage to recycle, you were doing it wrong

No, I never did dig in my garbage. That's the point. I don't know how you are going to separate all the "goodies" from the rest of the garbage unless you set up an assembly line in your house. If you've done that then the libs have really gotten into your life.

But again, my point continues to be: If it is uselessand wasteful, why do it? No one has ever given me a compelling reason to recycle that doesn't involve the false claims of diminishsing resources or lack of landfill space.

I'm doing it for my kids and grandkids. Have you been near a big city and seen the mountain rise where the dumps are. How about we put a dump behind Walmart. Whether or not you think we have enough trees, what's wrong with recycling paper? How much longer do you think we can not recycle before it's a problem?

My 6 year old grandkid learned to recycle in two minutes.

You keep referring to libs doing things to you and me and setting up an assembly line in my house. Only have two dumping spots one for recycle and one for the main can. What's the problem. It seems to me you dug your heels in because you don't give a sh!t and now you are using the excuse that it's too complicated.

Man, you need a life. What a minor inconvenience to be so upset about. I'd like to know if there is anything you would be willing to do to help save the planets resources if you won't even recycle? You do realize that not everything the other side comes up with is a totally dismissable idea - Recycle and get over yourself dude.

Oh, yes - please explain to us all where they are making more landfill space.
