Recycling - Turning Tax Dollars into Thin Air

A few weeks ago, this blog reported that the city of Cleveland finally realized that recycling is a giant waste of taxpayer dollars and decided to stop curbside pickup of recyclables. Consistent with Cleveland's experience, The Smallest Minority has a post with some additional examples of municipalities who have learned that recycling programs are fiscally irresponsible. Hopefully, as more and more locales change their policies toward recycling, the politicians will quit listening to the eco-utopian alarmists and start being prudent with taxpayer dollars.
