Your write up sounds decent as does the politicians but when you read the actual bill I don't see the words 'consumers will not bear any cost' and there's a lot of print about money non-specific.

Is this the Bill that wants to put deposits on like everything too? That could be hidden in parts I read and what is thought-up long the way.

I think the consumer/taxpayers will bear the cost of this as every time you charge a corporation or business money it trickles down to The People.

Now I didn't see anything about preventing pollution of garbage on our properties and roadways. I go out many times a year to clean my properties and I make some money on the deposit cans/btls that I clean up which is more than garbage.

The bottle law was supposed to stop pollution but when Cuomo said he has $150 million in non-returned-deposits to spend, that kind of shows that people really don't care and this Bill is a lot of hot air.

This has nothing to do with stopping the pollution people make on the way to the dump and etc. Doesn't touch on the over-stuffed garbage containers out there with garbage flying in the wind.

One part says 'ANY PERSON' not EPR but any person that means The People!

How many years or decades has recycling programs been around and we still have 'garbage pollution' that we shouldn't??
