Stupid....

....But it’s California, so this isn’t at all surprising.

It’s real annoying. You have to carry your own bag to the grocery store, or pay money for them to give you a bag. Now I just buy plastic bags, so it’s not like there’s less plastic in the world.

I live in a stupid state.

I already have a bunch of Trader Joe’s cloth or reusable bags. I’d rather use those and already do — but I don’t need the government to tell me!

I am old enough to recall what trash day was like before the advent of plastic bags.

A smelly, oozing, fermenting, unsanitary mess.

Plastic bags have made one of the single greatest contributions to public health in this country.

idiots. I remember when CA was pushing so hard FOR plastic bags back in the late 70’s early 80’s because paper bags were killing all the trees and plastic was “renewable”!

Plastic bags are clean. You don't know where that home bag has been. It may have dog feces on it. How often are those home bags washed? Never.

Will they test those home bags for dog feces and cat urine? Maybe after there is some weird disease going around and someone decides to test the home bags for dog feces and cat urine.

So, I wonder if people can use their own plastic bags from home that they know are clean?

What gets me about this, is that nobody talks about why it is we have plastic bags in the first place.

The reason we have plastic bags is because a previous generation of liberals pushed them in the early ‘80s due to wanting to save trees and save the rainforests. They wanted us to use plastic bags so they could save trees.

Now the liberals have changed their minds about plastic bags. Now they want to ban them. But they have never admitted they were wrong to have foisted plastic bags on us in the first place.

Were they wrong then or are they wrong now?

The super rich don’t even do their own grocery shopping, staff does it, stopping at the elite market for some Pate and a bottle of wine, is not like occasionally needing two carts and filling up the trunk.

Doing away with our grocery bags is something that only people out of touch with our lives could have promoted and imposed on us.

The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sun spots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles … hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages … And we think some plastic bags and some aluminum cans are going to make a difference?

The legislation is meant to encourage consumers to bring their own bags and as a way to reduce litter.

No. The legislation is meant to FORCE consumers into the state-approved action.

“...The bill was amended to waive fees for customers who are on public assistance...”

Of course. No more plastic bags, no more equality.
