Biden Calls for Plastic Bag Ban: "We should not be allowing plastic."
Americans for Tax Reform ^ | 1/8/2020 | Adam Sabes

Posted on 01/08/2020 11:29:41 AM PST by Viking2002

Joe Biden said he “100 percent” supports a national ban on plastic bags.

Here’s the key exchange:

Voter at town hall: “When I go back to Kenya, we don’t even use plastic bags or plastic papers. It’s not allowed, because we are trying to clean the ocean. And I think here in America, we are not trying to do that, to support the environment. And so, what’s your view? I mean, what’s your focus? Because in Kenya, we are trying to clean the environment. No plastic bags, you go with your own bags.”

Biden: “Well I agree with you 100 percent. We should not be allowing plastic. And what we should do is phasing it out.”

Hey, Joe, why don't you just put one over your head and tie it shut, huh?

Before banning any plastic anything, look around the world and find out who the worst offenders are. For cripes sake, we could outlaw plastic and China will still dump tons and tons on a daily basis.

Like treating a scratch on one part of the body while another has an arterial bleed.

Leftists are frickin’ retar... (oh wait, I can’t use that word anymore).

The problem in the oceans is not caused by countries like the USA. We COLLECT and DISPOSE of our plastic waste. The problem comes from 2nd and 3rd world countries that dump their garbage everywhere.

We need to be TEACHING them the art of waste collection and disposal.

Single use plastics are one of our mainline defenses against bacterial infections and disease. Wholesale bans are dangerous to us all.

And paper bags kill trees.

So that means, EVERYONE USE THE EXPRESS LANE (10 items or less).

Over and Over and Over and Over and...

First, the dummies didn't want trees cut to produce paper bags, which deteriorate very quickly. They preferred plastic. Now they don't want plastic.

Instead they want multiple use bags that become dirty and are seldom washed. I have seen multiple examples of dirty bags being used to take home groceries. Ugly!!

Is this "voter" voting legally? Hey pal, when you go back to Kenya, take B. Hussein OTraitor back with you. You can put him in whatever kind of bag you like.

What will replace it, dummy? The reason why we went to plastic was to “save trees.” Or at least, that was the reason given.

He knows it won’t stop there.
