QuoteYeah, now businesses can raise their fees and we can all pay for this. Just like our unemployment tax went up.  Lets see what else we can do to increase the cost of doing business so that we can raise the fee to the consumer.

You got it. Hey, nothing is free, even if we feel good about it.

It costs more to recycle plastic and re-use than it does to create plastics using virgin pellets. Until the government puts in a floor for recycling items, there will be no one really doing it. There is not enough demand for recycled items in the world to create the need for recycling.
