Most bags are recycled. They are also designed to decay in sunlight. Some liberal told me she’d experimented in her back yard by burying a plastic bag for a year in her garden. It didn’t decay at all.

I told her about the sunlight design. She was nonplussed and insisted that the ones that were buried would hurt animals. I said, “What does a worm or beetle do when it encounters a rock?” Go around, she answered. “Same thing with plastic”, I replied. She looked at me like she wanted to put me in an oven.

And another thing. In any given landfill what % of the total volume is composed of plastic bags? If the answer is > .01% then I am surprised.
