In New York City, you are subject to rather hefty fines if the
garbage man finds recyclables in your garbage bags.


You know government's getting entirely out of hand when there are
garbage police.


You know that people are getting out out of hand when they are so
****ing stupid that they NEED garbage police to point out to them that
the paper goes in this can, and the plastic goes in that can, and the
glass goes in that can over there. If you're goping to argue that
people shouldn't have to recycle, then this conversation is over.


If it needs to be enforced by government arms, then it's obviously not a
viable idea from the get-go.


OK. Propose something different. And, are you saying that ANYTHING that
needs to be "enforced by government arms" is not a viable idea? Seriously?


Well, there you go with your all-or-nothing thinking.

Although it is true that any idea that's economically viable will
attract VOLUNTARY investment.

And everything else: Police, Fire depts, schools. libraries, are local
issues, and none of the Federal Government's business.

The two jobs the Federal Government is supposed to do - secure the
borders and protect our liberties - they are failing miserably at,
and the evidence is that they've gone over to the evil side.

Thanks,
