What a waste of your money.

Published: Wednesday June 11,2008 by GeorgeOfTheJungle

You know, I read somewhere in a report that all this money being spent on recycling programs - the money for extra bins of different colours, extra staff on councils to supervise the program, extra Managers and legal services on Council staff (often at well over £84,000/year), extra policy makers and checkers, extra office space at councils - all this money that belongs to the people who pay taxes is an absolute waste of time. Why? Because, despite all this money and snooping, do you realize that only 20% of your rubbish that you classify for recycling is ever recycled - the rest is just buried into the local landfill. So, you are all paying for all that extra stuff, and doing the work - unpaid - of sorting rubbish from your home, and the stuff, after all that is buried in a local landfill. What a waste of time and money. Typical of Government waste at all levels in England. Time to wake up, people.
