You act like there wasn't an entire propoganda arm dedicated to making people stay at home and or vote right. As a nation, we asked for this when we let the Brooks Brothers riot determine that Bush got elected, instead of the populace.
Because a third of Americans are uninformed, another third is misinformed and thinks the current administration is in line with their goals, the other third is being gaslit by the other 2/3s that this is normal... And for those not buying the gaslighting, they are ignored and still too small of a group to do much.
Eh, it entirely depends on the market. If your near mills or ports, a lot of stuff goes to a MRF (materials recover facility).
I have visited one and its pretty labor imtensive and gross. I am guessing most employees are undocumented because I can't imagine others doing the job for the pay. They basically spend all day picking stuff off a constant feed of garbage. It should be all recyclables, but in a lot of streams there is more trash than recyclables.
If a MRF is near a waste to energy plant, they can get like close to 99% landfill avoidance rates. If not, your essentially making people slave over seperating your recyclables that you could have done (at least before the entire country went single stream)
You know what's interesting is that the first real anti-vaxxers started because old vaccines would use pus from an infected cow. Something about it being unholy worship of cow or some nonsense.
Now the anti-vaxx crowd is all crying about synthetics... Can't make anyone happy.
Before it became decriminalized in MA in a lot of places the worst that would happen is what stoners would call "the bowl tax".
The cops would smash your glass. Basically to send a message that your being dumb smoking in an openly public space and making them waste their time on you.

Is this the country the Princess Diaries are based on?
