Damn them paper bag lawsuits!

San Francisco is at it again!
San Francisco may become the first city in the nation to charge shoppers for grocery bags.The city’s Commission on the Environment is expected to ask the mayor and board of supervisors Tuesday to consider a 17-cent per bag charge on paper and plastic grocery bags. While the goal is reducing plastic bag pollution, paper was added so as not to discriminate.
Isn’t it also discrimination not to charge the people who bring their own bags?

I was listening to that on Rush today (one of the rare occasions I get to listen to him). I was flabbergasted. Looks like this will effect the poor more then anyone else.
