Fire in Brijest - a predictable result of recycling stupidity?

[FlatAssembler]

Globally, private recycling is a $50 billion industry.

And I assume the vast majority of that money comes from recycling metal, and maybe some from recycling glass. Recycling glass, while probably not profitable in a free market, is still not as ridiculous as recycling plastics.

You said earlier that it is government regulation that allows plastic recycling to be profitable.

If so, that was via mistake. I meant that government policies (of forcing people to sort through their household trash) make them profitable.

Eggs again. Haven't you had enough of Nudger beating you up about this?

It is difficult to imagine how eggs might not be the biggest contributor to antibiotic resistance in humans. Sure, vineyards (where 0.5% of antibiotics goes to) probably have some effect (via horizontal gene transfer from bacteria that attack plants to bacteria that attack humans), but, Jesus Christ, the use of antibiotics in the egg industry is by more than two orders of magnitude more massive (around 70% of antibiotics are used in the egg industry) and it causes antibiotic resistance in humans directly.

That sounds like a problem with the plant.

Then I assume the problem with North Korea is Kim Jong Un and that, if somebody else was on power, he would do it much better.
