You’ve been lied to. Recycling plastic was never about saving the planet. It was too get consumers to be okay polluting with plastic. That isn’t changing. Recycling plastic is not the answer. It never was. The oil lobby spent millions to trick you into using plastic.
The article says that new recycling processes just create other pollution.
To solve this, we stop using petroleum based plastic.
This is a podcast transcript. I listened to it years ago. It’s what I’m basing my ideas on.

It was a fascinating listen.
I’m not familiar with in n out. Most chain burger places cost their fries in chemicals to make them crunchy longer. A natural cut fry becomes unappetizing like 10 minutes after it’s out if the fryer.
There are trade offs with each way.
One is “cleaner” or maybe purer One has a better customer experience
What really sucks is that the Republicans are all towing the Trump line because it’s an election year and Trump will make or break their campaign. Trump loves a good dictator and thinks he’s buddies with Putin.
That’s the fastest way you can prove you’re an asshole in the office.
I worked at a place where a manager refused to meet with his subordinates and instead would make and then send them videos of what he expected them to do. That did not go over well. They were all super insulated by that move.
This!
There are a lot of consumer protections on credit cards that do not apply to debit cards. I pay for basically everything with a credit card. I pay the card off every month.
I feel like it should be 50% as they make up just over half of the US population.
I could only quickly get statistics for 2019.

On the top 100 grossing films of 2019, women represented:
10.7% of directors 19.4% of writers 24.3% of producers 70.4% of casting directors
They think themselves special because
A) it’s a very large state, nearly as large as Alaska. Originally or was going to become several states, but it being admitted to the union prior to the civil war as a slave state the leaders of the country chose to leave it as one huge state because they wanted to keep the ratio of slave and non slave states equal.
B) they used to be an independent country (like Hawaii). Nevermind the fact the only reason they asked to join the Union was that the nation of Texas was broke and couldn’t pay their bills.
C) they’re quite populous, nearly as much so as California.
Basically, when you’re second best at everything and broke af you get a chip on your shoulder.
You missed a really big one of: did you wear clothing the has synthetic fibers? Bam! (Emeril voice) micro plastics.
If they cap the rate the house can be assessed for at 3% growth per year, they won’t have enough money to keep the state running if the actual rate of inflation is consistently around 5%.
Generally, the state is the biggest employer in any given state. If they don’t have the money to give it raises that match the rate of inflation, the state employees have less purchasing power than they did a year ago.
Any social programs would have that same obstacle.
This is treating a symptom, and it’s going to have repercussions.
Each state taxes differently. I’m not familiar with Georgia’s specifics. I live in MN. School funding is done via property tax and supplemented with a per student amount from the state. If the property tax is capped to 3% a year, if property tax is the primary funding for schools, teacher raises would be have to be capped to 3% a year.
New developments or places with higher turnover (tax assessed value resets when the house is sold) could be able to pay significantly more for teachers than older stable neighborhoods. That excentuates the suburban flight.
Man, woman, person, camera, TV
The doctors were so impressed with how well I did on that intelligent test.
Fwiw, he passed a cognitive stroke exam 4 years ago.
Yes, but the school district police chief actively kept other officers from intervening.
I’ll assume they’re looking into that one person’s actions.
Are you suggesting the Border Patrol get into a shooting match with the TX national guard? Both sides are armed. It deserves a court case, not a gun fight.
I just rented an EV from Hertz. I loved it. I planned to rent one next time I needed a rental.
Granted, I’m not keeping them in business with my 2 rentals a year.
That’s messed up.
How is it, I’ve never heard of this until now?
That’s super terrible business tactics.
It’s not socially acceptable to not tip servers in a full service restaurant in the USA. It’s becoming a required social norm to tip fast casual.
The pandemic really changed the tipping norms in the USA.
Doesn’t the prison get paid for every person incarcerated?
No, it’s a jail. Jail is part of the county. In most states, the sheriff runs it and the budget is part of the sheriff’s budget. When they need money, that go to the county and ask for more. A jail is where people who just got arrested are detained. They are held there until bail is posted or their trial is complete. Frequently minor sentences for misdemeanors (under 1 year) are served in jail, though larger counties usually have a separate place for post trial misdemeanor sentences to be served.
Prison is ran by the state or federal government. It houses people convicted of felonies who are sentenced to do time in a prison (almost always a sentence over 1 year).
There’s a lot of similarities and people often confuse them.

I heard about it last year on a podcast. It’s apparently very common among the ultra wealthy.
What are you trying to show?
You didn’t have to make $1,000,000 per year to buy a $600,000 house.
Your post doesn’t make sense.
Specifically, how you get money from these “third world countries”?
There’s nothing wrong with being paid by a nation for doing work for them.
The first half “I pay for all monthly subscriptions”, good as a functioning member of society you need to pay your bills. There is nothing controversial about it. You could have omitted that part.
