California lawmakers want to ban those little shampoo bottles you get in hotels

While California is doing that, New York needs to ban the beer can paper bags. In NY, you can only drink in public if your beverage is in a paper bag. Not that any of us know what’s in those bags. Imagine how many trees could be saved, correcting global warming.

What a ripe-for-parody that
advertising would be today.
You can't get out the door

He told me, washing, shower, bath nothing could put the fire out.

Maybe a walk down Santa Monica Blvd?...

[oldasrocks]

As long as they don’t ban the little bottles of personal lube.

1) Is there anything I can do for you?
2) I’d like some ice cream.
1) OK, what flavor ice cream do you want?
2) It doesn’t matter. It’s for my ass. (full quote)

Do you own a business? You only think you own it. You don’t. The government does. It skims the profits, tells you how much to charge, who you must hire. It micromanages your business and tells you what your bathrooms must look like.

You do all the work and bear all the risk. The government gets its money no matter what.

Over 90% of the plastic waste in the oceans comes from just 10 rivers... 8 in Asia, 2 in Africa... 6 in China... and yet our straws and balloons and hotels are the focus, somehow... when banning all plastic in the Western World wouldn't reduce the issue by even 6%.

Check your premises.

Let’s see......8+2+6 = 10. This new math is a killer

The same bottles the Girl Scouts collect to give to homeless shelters, etc.?

and their profit margin on your labor and risk and work is far higher than yours.

Last couple of hotels I stayed at had refillable dispensers. I always take my own stuff so never use their stuff anyway.

The 8 in Asia is 6 in China (part of Asia, last I checked) and 2 in India (also part of Asia, last I checked...)

I still think this is wrong, the Mekong has to be in there somewhere! Maybe it’s counted as Chinese since its headwaters are in China?

Cannot take more than 3 oz of anything thru TSA anyway.

It's nearly all pure profit for them. They don't contribute to your payroll, they don't contribute to your inventory. They don't contribute to your building rent/mortgage/upkeep.

One could argue that they provide infrastructure, if they ignore the fact that you as a taxpayer pay for the roads, water, gas, electric, sewer, mail service and hired muscle...

They’re still straightening the teacups on the Titanic, I see.

Yeah but can a guy still crap in the tub?

[DoughtyOne]

So now they want us to travel by air with liquids in our suitcase?

I know the lights are home in Sacramento, but is anybody really home?

These people baffle me with their pettiness.

I had someone the other day tell me democrats are not really communists. I get to differ.

They want to micromanage every aspect of our lives and the businesses that provide services to us.
