Well Betsy, you can have your opinion.......unfortunately, more than 1/2 =
of we Americans don't agree with you......more people recycle than =
vote.......
=20
Shame on you for spreading such counter productive opinions. Garbage is =
a problem around the world......and you want to just blow it off and say =
it's not such a problem after all......coming across a major network in =
the most wasteful country of all. Every one of your arguments are based =
on an your opinion that this infant industry, which competes with =
federally subsidized virgin materials, has no value.....that we have =
reached our economies of scale, that all options for re-use of materials =
have been exhausted, and that we can all just stay home tube out, eat =
chocolate bon-bons and forget about everybody else and the problems our =
6 billion people create.
=20
You are a pitiful cynic without a trace of a conscience, selfish, =
negative, pessimistic and so narrowly minded that you fail to see this =
issue in any depth at all. Opinions like yours only continue to fuel =
others like you, who continue to take more than you give and fail to =
work towards leaving this planet a little better than you came into it. =

=20
Where has it ever been morally correct to mindlessly consume and waste =
natural resources. America is only part of the 25% of the =
industrialized world that annually consumes 75% of the worlds =
resources......and the remaining 4 billion people want to live like us. =
We are leading the world in our consumptive habits and you want to say =
that's ok. =20
=20
You need to seriously take a look at yourself, realize the roll you play =
informing the public with the news of the day, get your facts spun =
correctly and try again to be a productive individual on this rapidly =
diminishing planet. From what you have written, it is obvious you =
really don't have a clue. You'll have to better than that......try =
again to get it right, then print the truth. I'm sorry you believe what =
you wrote.......it was pathetic. Hopefully you will look back on this =
day and realize the mistake you have made.
