More sustainable environmental lies. How the Oregon bottle bill has finally completely failed.

People who take bottles back to stores that they paid deposits on are learning these days that the automatic machines are almost all broken or too dirty to touch where they still exist and they also find out that they have to take their return bottles now to out of the way recycling centers to get money for them because supermarkets including Costco and Walmart no longer have to handle the cans and bottle returns.  Fortunately for them because it has become a complete awful mess.  Now what is happening is that the system is evolving where people putting the deposit on the can or bottle at the store are just expected to be permanently out of the money.  people are now expected to toss the bottles into the recycling blue roller garbage cans so the companies picking up the garbage get to cash in the bottles.  It is a total mess and an unnecessary one.

That is not true of the Oswego Furnace Tower in George Rogers Park or Old River Drive that connects to the park's main pathway up along the Willamette river front. Along most of Old River drive the fro...

Bitcoin , Most Crypto Currency Are No Better Than Investing With Bernie Madoff And Maybe Worse.

 Just because you see an elevator going up and a lot of people wanting to get on it does not mean you should too.  The Media, Tech Media and some financial institutions are now trying to mainstream cryptocurrencies for savings and investment.  The only real message they have is you will miss the elevator going up if you don't get in. Get in Now.  Don't miss going up.  You can make you an instant fortune others already have . Some have become instant billionaires why not you?  All you are buying is an empty data box on computer servers.  With Bitcoin there is no intrinsic value.  Not even a fraction of a cent par value.  All you buy is trust that others, later on, will pay as much or more than you have later on.  So you trust the biggest stock market investors to buy your stock from you for more than they think it is worth? That would be like Warren Buffet giving away money instead of making it in the market.   It does not matte...
