Yet another money grab by New Yorkistan

[VietnamEraVet]

BOHICA New Yorkers!

The Albany reveneurs are looking to double (and further expand) NY’s container deposit law. Bottom line is that NY makes money off of this horseshit recycling law,- currently they keep $121 million per year in unclaimed deposits. Now, with this bill, they want to more than double that! Asshole motherfuckers!

Supposdly to clean up the environment. Strange,-we don’t have that problem down here in the Carolina’s, - and we don’t have an asinine container deposit law either! Just one more example of New Yorkistan ripping off taxpayers.

Bill would raise NY's 5-cent beverage container deposit to 10 cents

Here's why supporters, including can and bottle redemption centers, hope 2024 will be the year of the "Bigger Better" Bottle Bill.

They're counting on the influx of illegal invaders into land it's a win win votes + $ incentive!

It'll just incentivize more people to walk out of Walmart without paying for stuff.

"What'cha got under your coat?"
"Oh, I got a couple iPads, a Crikut machine, and a couple 6-packs of Pepsi. You?"

I do t drink a lot of canned drinks but we do a few. I just toss them in the recycle bin and be done with it. We saved a buck for my son to take back for weeks and it was like $4.00 so we said not worth it at all. They can have my money but if they double it maybe I’ll donate them to someone other than the gay scouts of America just so they don’t get my money anymore. Leave it at the current rate and they can keep my money piss me off and I’ll change my behavior.

Michigan has a 10¢ bottle return, but only for carbonated beverages. Everything else goes in the garbage, LOL

Now, think about this; you get paid 20+ dollars per hours, at 10¢/bottle, if you stand there and put 100 bottles in a machine for 20 minutes, you LOST MONEY, LOL

 

[CNYJohn]

Hell
I buy soda in Pennsylvania, no deposit, turn the bottle in up here, get 5 cents.
And I burn paper and cardboard and pretty much everything else that will combust
I live in ny, but I don't believe ny laws apply to me

Same with NYS in some cases. If I buy a 6-pack of vitamin water there is no fee. Regular water and soda yes.

Beverage container deposits

[Hochulsucks1234]

Surprised there isn't a clause in there stating "those that are considered low income are waived from paying the bottle fee". It seems like everything these fuckers do to gouge money out of the working class, they protect the scumbags that don't work at the same time.

 

[Cooolone]

Scan and reprint water bottle barcodes onto labels and put them onto bottles that don't have deposit (vitamin water)... And return! Let alone they're gonna go to $0.10¢ per... Just don't use the same place all the time for returns!

They want bottles?

Give em' bottles!

There's no true recycling with these freaking things anyways.

Fuuuuuuuck NY and all its wokeness!

 

[Cavalry]

Why stop at $.10? This is money left at the table. They should raise it to $1 per container, and 1099 the person returning the deposits because clearly thats "income".

I really should get a job for the state, I could come up with all sorts of jackass ways for them to backdoor tax people and then piss away the money on shit that does not matter while everything that does goes to shit.

 

[Acer-m14]

get rid of the fking deposits .. its for drug money ..

 

[Mr. terzmo]

NY definitely sucks in a lot of areas. The appeasement I get is to save the bottles and return them for 6 cents each on OMF Wednesday. I save the money during the year and spend it on Christmas. Usually around 250.00 on average.

If only they would invest energy into cutting spending....

Cutting spending? Wheh ih dhe incentive to da gubmint in dhat? Mo money fo the gubmint ih wha dhis ih all about.

I do my best not to be effected by the insane policy in this pathetic state. All we drink is reverse osmosis water from our filter. Goes directly into my hydro flask. Once again, as per usual, this state can bite me.

Why do you do that? Is that not taking out the Fluroide out of the water? I mean the Government cares about your teeth and all. Huh, Maybe it's just one of those Conspiracies.
