Thankfully, CT is worried about taxing plastic bags, implementing tolls, etc., you know the important things. Things like job creation, improving the state's economy, etc, arent't as important.

I'm sure it was also a honest mistake that the teachers of said 7th grade students forget to teach them most of the trash in the ocean is from 3rd world countries who don't care about the environment and that more and more of their precious recycling now gets dumped in the landfill or incinerated as it is worthless.

Sure, let’s use cloth “reusable” bags, which promotes E Coli and other food-borne pathogens because the envirowackos are too lazy to wash the bags.

The only reason we have plastic bags is because the azzhoes banned paper bags most places.

In Illinois, they have no intention whatsoever to “ban” plastic bags. They just plan on taxing them. A lot. State AND city. Great moneymaker. Don’t give a #$%# about the “environment”.

LAST CHANCE BATTLE Connecticut is working on TOLLING the interstates every 6 miles which will cost most residents in excess off 2K a year and create inflation at the cash register. Some low pay jobs will be abandoned and replacement workers will be hard to get. COMMIE DEMOCRATS are going to finally kill the state and import more illegals and then go belly up and be too big to fail and look for a FED handout. They stole the election. Is your State next?

We are screwed. They are ruining these kids. I love how they say Pacific Ocean. Does it ever occur to them that it’s coming from third world countries? Probably not told that during the propaganda talks.

We live half way between a liberal town and a much more conservative one. I the liberal town the grocery charges $1 for a plastic bag. In the other town they are free. The free bag store is 4 miles further from our home. Guess where we shop.

Using children as cover to further totalitarian control is what this is all about. It's the only use the DemComs have for them.

I would test it out in minority communities first to see if it helps the litter problem

Banning plastic bags is probably the second stupidest thing the politicians ever did

The first number one incredibly stupid thing politicians did try to “save the planet” was forcing everybody to use those stupid curly cue lamps all of which have 40 to 60 mg of gaseous mercury in them and would poison anybody that ever gets exposed to it

In addition there so nasty that 15% of people can’t even be around them

I dare you to even try to ever stare at one of those stupid curly cue lamps
For 10 seconds

I can find many uses for old plastic shopping bags. Like lining small garbage cans. Or storing odds and ends in them. That kind of stuff. I guess we'll soon have to find something else to replace them.

Added to the post. If you have other things that the Democrats want to ban, please send me a message.
