Whatever, I'll never understand why some people extend their hatred for environmentalists to the environment itself. Our economy depends on clean beaches and healthy wildlife and I pretty much despise the assholes who use the world for a trashcan.
Well if you think it would stop at straws, think again. Control freaks are never happy. Democrats simply have this compulsive desire as a trait. After straws, it will be plastic bottles, after plastic bottles, it will be plastic cutlery, after plastic cutlery........
Over here the county council passed a law against plastic bags. They claim this is something the citizens wanted. But wouldn't you know it, the law doesn't go in effect until January 1, 2020, and as coincidence would have it, voting day is on November 5th, 2019. What are the odds, huh?
So unless the public is reminded of this before the election, after the first of the year, no longer will you just be able to go to the store and simply buy your groceries. You will have to drag your stupid reusable cloth bags with you. It will make the groceries a little heavier to get into the house, if you forget your bags, you will either have to run home to get them, or buy more of them in the store.
Like I said, Democrats are nothing but control freaks no different than the communists in other countries.
