Ed, you're obviously a borderline moron and it's a miracle you aren't in jail for all sorts of ethical "lapses" and crooked dealings. Stop proving it every day:
Chicago restaurants, stores and cafeterias would be prohibited from using Styrofoam and other “polystyrene foam” products that clog landfills, under a crackdown proposed Wednesday by the City Council’s most influential alderman.
Finance Committee Chairman Edward M. Burke (14th) drafted the ban after learning that Chicago Public Schools use and throw away 35 million Styrofoam lunch trays each year.
If the City Council approves the ban, violators would face fines ranging of up to $300 for the first offense to $500 for subsequent violations. City Hall would be free to grant exemptions, only if there is “no alternative that is both affordable and compostable.”
First up, there is no "landfill shortage." This is another fantasy brought to you by the same people who started the "global warming" debacle that has been completely debunked in the past three or four months. It's been funny as hell seeing every scientist, UN talking head and Al Gore stumbling over themselves attempting to explain why their entire premise of spending trillions of dollars is based on lies.
Second, we'd rather the CPS kept using and disposing of Styrofoam instead of wasting millions of gallons of water and detergents washing so-called "reusable" items like plastic trays or "bio-degradable" technologies. The alleged "green" movement does more harm than good in these cases. Do you notice how cereal prices have shot up in the past year or two? That's because more and more grain is diverted to fuel and "green" bio products. Guess who suffers the most? The poor, especially recipients of US farm aid overseas.
And third, that phrase "City Hall would be free to grant exemptions" just screams for bribes or political donations or worse. The City Council keeps sticking his nose into foie gras, trans-fat, and lord knows what else without actually spending time on governing and solving money problems that are dooming this city to irrelevance.
