. They found it burned far more energy and created far more waste by- products trying to recycle old plastic products rather then destroying and making new ones.

And, thus, it is the perfect liberal economic stimulus. Don't forget about the wages of the collectors and sorters. It's all wasted.

My previous employer had become permeated with the recycling disease. They even took away the wastebaskets from our desks to make us cut down on wastepaper (we all put grocery bags underneath them.) When I would occasionally ask if the company was profiting from all this recycling, I would be met with hostile stares.

Decades of recycling propaganda will not be easy to erase.

The company I work for did the same thing, and then gave us these little bitty green cans for the “trash I make.” So I stuck a Command hook on the side of the desk, hang plastic bags, and throw it all in the regular trash.
