It's about time, heck, charge 50 cents a bag, maybe people will wake up and stop being so wasteful.

The American society is fat, lazy, out of shape and has no desire to be the "best" country anymore or be a leader in any way. We sit back and wait for everyone else to solve problems. It's about time we follow the lead of other countries and ban the bags or impose a large fee.

It would be even better if we were the leader in the movement, but it's too late for that.
