Plastic bags should be banned. Lazy I’m at for should bring your own cloth bags to grocery store. Doesn’t make you a Lib

I buy like $350 worth of food when I go to the store. I don't want to carry around 38 bags

correct me if i'm wrong here, but doesn't the majority of plastic waste floating around in our oceans come for SouthEast Asia?


So is this the same concept as California banning straws? Just virtue signaling?

I got my kids Icee's the other night and the only straws they had were cardboard. The straws fell apart and broke when they were only half way done with them.

They should go ahead and ban toothpaste and toothbrushes as well since nobody there uses them anyway.

Arbitrarily banning something because you don't like it? Ya that pretty much does in fact make you a "Lib".

The biggest nanny staters on Earth are left-wingers. Look at Tipper Gore and the music bans, Bloomberg types with their desire to ban cigs, soft drinks and fatty foods, feminists are now anti-porn and the SJW crowd wants the 1st Amendment abolished. Modern day leftists want America to look like the plot of Demolition Man.

Cotton buds

As if their teeth aren't bad enough, now they're going to have wax visible in their ears.

The government will now consult on allowing straws to be sold in pharmacies
This is absurdity.
