Quote of the day

Ann Althouse:

If recycling is worth doing, it should be paying for itself without a state government subsidy, or, if not, let local communities decide if they want to cough up the money to do it anyway. It’s time for decentralization, efficiency, realism… not fluffy-headed idealism. Saving money is the morality we need, not posing as good people by doing something if it actually makes no sense.
