Get your preban Saran Wrap: Albany is going to ban plastic packaging for NYS

[C3D]

Yep, all the crap you buy will now be soggier or worse.

Sweeping NY bill aims to nix plastic wrap for these crucial everyday items

New Yorkers create nearly 5 pounds of trash apiece every day.

This fucking state. I guess all other problems have been solved so they have time to devote to this nonsense.

Thank you sir, may I have another!

I've been bootlegging plastic shopping bags up to my kid for years so she has something for when she cleans the litter box. NY is clown town ....

This state is moronic and won’t even care about us. What about affordability? This will add money to everything. This will also not save use on trash because the paper will likely be waxed and thicker. I can’t put all my recycling in my recycle bin now and half goes in my trash can as it is. My town only recycles on a biweekly basis for pick up.
All this will do is cost money.

Are the politicians in this state born retarded or do they go to school to learn that ??

I just burn that kind of stuff after using it.

Toss it all into the burn pits.

Ho Lee Fucking Fuck, does the retarded shit ever stop from those retarded fucking fucks in Albany?

This! I dig a 8' hole, and burn it off when it gets kinda full. It takes years for the hole to fill with ash.

Do you know if you go grocery shopping in PA they still use plastic bags? Just saying. I wonder how much tax revenue this state can afford to lose by these asinine laws?

New Hampshire as well

My bride will go shopping over there,
Self check out line just to swipe an extra 40 or 50 bags for whatever use she needs.



Fukkin state.............they forget........not all products made in n.y. that use plastics stay here
So their figure of 5 lbs per day is instant bullshit.

Some weeks I grab trash from the shop just to make a garbage bag heavy and full enough to put out for pick up.
That's with 2 in the house.
We burn all paper type products and use the ash on the lawn

The deal is: increase the cost, tax the increase. Increase the handling, more jobs tax the jobs.
The carbon credit game just a different spin.

What if I order this stuff on line from Amazon? Will these companies make NYS specific packaging or what? Seems to me we should be burning our trash to make electric instead of burying it but what do I know. Electric is expensive and not enough homes so let’s take trash and bury it, makes no sense to me.

One of my daughters lives in NC . When they visit to drop our granddaughter for the sumner she brings us a box full. When we drive down to NC to bring our granddaughter home we bring back a box full.

We should start mining land fills.
Plus we have a chip problem, so remove old chips and reuse them, everything isn't needed to be the newest etc.. I would still have a land line for phone if they didn't charge long distance for calling in my same county.

Was at my sons for dinner and the kids asked what we did when I was young. Told them we left the house in the morning to play and had to be back home by dinner; then after dinner went out side to play and had to be home by dark.
They couldn't think of how that would be any fun!

FIFY - been saying this for years. I even have the plan mostly drafted. I'm (proposing) calling the landfill prison camps "Tennessee Resource Accountability Centers"
