Welcome to the church of Secular Fundamentalism.  Many, and probably most American cities dump their carefully collected “recyclables” into the local landfill!  That’s right!  After you laboriously separate your pizza boxes and beer cans from your papaya skins and T-Bone steak left-overs, after you arduously rinse out spaghetti sauce jars and baked bean cans, and after you religiously do all this and place each in its designated container, your city picks it up and dumps it all into exactly the same landfill into which they put your baby’s dirty diapers and the avocado pits from yesterday’s guacamole.  China is tired of being the trash dump for North America.  “Recycling” is impossibly expensive and hopelessly uneconomical, in other words, if you did manufacture plastic or glass bottles out of trash produced by your city, nobody would purchase your products as they’d cost so much more than freshly manufactured equivalents.  How companies lie when they tell you their products contain 30% recycled material.  The religion of Secular Fundamentalism has its saints and its sinners like most other religions.  It should cost no more than $5/ month to get rid of your household trash; check your city bill now!  Meanwhile, continue being forced to participate in the sacred sacraments of the official government religion of Secular Fundamentalism and genuflect in your kitchen before the blue cylindrical shaped idol that you piously feed with carefully selected tidbits.
