Puzzle me this: Why is it that the same people who bitch about workers sense of entitlement (you know, workers wanting decent treatment and wages) themselves feel entitled to free plastic bags? (
It's true)
I think its a marvelous success so far:
Toronto's new 5 cent plastic bag law has reduced the use of plastic shopping bags by something like 75%.

It's not that they feel entitled to free plastic bags, it's that private businesses have a right to charge what they want for things, down to & including 'nothing.' Some of the cheaper grocery stores have charged a nickle for bags for years to keep down costs, but not because a coercive government ordered them to do so.
