Next we will hear that they will make exceptions for “poor people”, who cannot be expected to buy/bring their own bags, etc.

Since the escape at Clinton Correctional Facility, the NYS Department of Corrections (NYDOCS) has mandated that all facility employees can only bring lunches, etc., into the facility in see-through plastic bags, and they want the employees to pay for them. Glad I retired in 2003 before this buffoon became Governor. It was bad enough working when his father was in office.

They did that somewhere else, I forgot where.

The national fight for independence from the most powerful king on the planet started there.

As well as in Philly.

And now those places aren’t even recognizable. Benedict Arnold was just ahead of his time, I guess.

Better get to crocheting your old plastic bags into new totes. Of course, it'll take a hundred old bags to make one new one. Or use your old dog food bags if you want every dog in the neighborhood following you home. Or flies following you home with the juice and raisin boxes.

Guessing there will be exceptions on doggie poop baggies.

[armourenthusiast]

What are they going to use to pickup their dog’s poop.
Their left hand?

No, there are no exceptions, however we will be taxed to buy them for poor folks.

That’s what they did in Cali. I can always tell the EBT people because they don’t bother to bring their own bags. The stores have to give them bags. Everyone else carries their own or has to pay 10-15 cents for them.
