Well I,m not in Europe and due to a back problem can’t use backpacks and I
don’t like this type of regulation. I will just pay forbags from the stores if
such stupid laws bgo in to effect and let the capitalists make money. Yes,
there is a part of me that could be considered selfish or egocentric or
whatever you want to call it but there comes a point in time when one gets
tired of sacrificing for the common good when a fad gets its day. I have always
said that I have a libertarian streak in me.

Oh, come on, bringing reusable bags is no hardship, and there are plenty of
bags, backpacks, what have you out there that are much better at containing
groceries, etc. than those flimsy plastic bags. It has been that way in Europe
for decades, and if you can’t or don’t want to pay for plastic bags, then bring
your own bag with you. Many people repurpose the plastic bags by using them in
their small kitchen trash cans rather than purchasing the dedicated trash bags
sold by brands like Hefty, Glad, etc.

The issue is that for people that don't have the luxury of driving to the
store having to bring reusable bags is an added inconvenience and many of the
canvas bags are difficult to carry and don't seem to hold as much. I am old
enough to remember that at one time plastic bags were considered a panacea
because people weren't using as many trees by not using paper bags. The problem
with the California law in addition is that stores can charge up to .10 for
each bag and there are concerns about how this will impact low income people.

Hi
While I agree in theory with banning plastic bags I have a problem. Where
we live, I have a trash shoot for all trash. I reuse all the plastic bags I
get from the stores. Usually I use cloth bags for groceries but just get
enough plastic bags for trash. If they outlaw plastic bags, we will need to
buy bags at the store. reusing bags makes more sense than buying them.
Perhaps a lot of people don't do this though.
