Default Re: Single use plastic bag ban by govmint

it's a hollow environmental ploy.

Not saying it's not good to get rid of plastic bags, but there's bigger problems, but they cost money to fix and are hard. banning bags doesn't cost the government anything, makes it look like they're doing something, while not really doing anything at all. And it replaces lightweight biodegradable bags with heavy weight bags that end up in the trash anyway, and the supermarkets can make some extra money on them. It's win for the supermarkets, lose of the environment.
