Customers, huh?
Has a single one of the impossibly stupid people demanding the return to PAPER bags, ever thought of the millions of people who cannot handle overstuffed paper bags? People whose hands are “not what they used to be?”
The plastic bags I get groceries in have convenient “handles” that can be even be draped, 2 or 3 at a time over a wrist. “Customers” can reach into the cart and remove a single plastic bag, with one hand, and carefully put it in the car (or whatever). I remember paper bags tearing down the center, spilling everything all over the parking lot.
But then again, why should anyone consider the customer?

I understand the issue, but what, exactly prevents you from using handled bags for your convenience instead of forcing everyone else to convert to 'your' type of bag? It has NOTHING to do with considering the customer and EVERYTHING to do with using government to have it your way. That holds no matter what the 'issue' is.

No disrespect intended, but it should be up to the business to decide what types of convenience to provide. If you don't like what they provide, supply yourself or go somewhere else.
