Who makes up these rules anyway? I can just see them now - a bunch of people with way too much time, an abundance of ideology and not enough life experience to know the limits of the willingness of humans to be manipulated like lab rats. Don't let me down humans! Have some guts - toss out some banana peels!
When was the last time your garbage collector looked in your trash bin?
Seattle to begin fining people who put food in trash
The Oregonian, January 7, 2015 By Kelly House
Seattle is laying down the law on residents who violate the city's new trash law by putting food in their garbage bins.
The city has begun putting red tags on the cans of violators, KUOW radio reports. For now, the tag is just a warning. But come July, residents who dump food scraps in the trash will pay $1 each time they violate. Fines for apartments, condos and commercial buildings will be higher.
The Orgonian got it wrong. The law says nothung about "food". It's all about trying to keep recylcing material out of the trash system.
