Wow. Some semblance of a fair and balance article in the N.Y. Times about recycling? They actually are talking about cost and benefits of it? They admit that kids from kindergarten up are indoctrinated that recycling is an unquestioned good goal???

So the Times wants us to think about a cost / benefit analysis of recycling??? There is actually a liberal cause which they think we should do such a review?

Will the Times shock us, by saying we should do a cost/benefit analysis of the various plans liberals have to fight “global warming”????

Even in the latter part of the 1980s, the pioneering munis were running into problems as more and more cities and towns went the "recycling" route.

That is, a soon over-supply of recyclables outstripped demand, and prices for the used material went negative, forcing them to pay to have the stuff carted away.

At the same time, landfill operators had a hard time even breaking even.
