Thanks to the Governor and legislature, $400 million meant for the environment was instead used to cover up the deficits created by an out of control Sacramento.
"Contra Costa County has lost nine beverage redemption sites in the past six months, and Alameda County has seen a net loss of six. Others have reduced their days and hours.
Lafayette and Moraga's sole centers shut down in November. Walnut Creek has lost two of its three sites, and Oakley and San Ramon residents have one instead of two.
Two of Berkeley's three recycling centers have closed since October. Livermore lost two of its three facilities last month."
People are put out of work, the environment is harmed, money is stolen from Trust Accounts.
The good news is that this proves we do not have to pay a nickel or dime tax (that is the correct word) when we buy bottles or cans. This tax is NOT about the environment, it is about government lying about the use of money.
Stop the government lies--repeal the tax.
