Minimum Wage Increase Takes Out California's Biggest Recycling Biz
August 7, 2019

California is the home of recycling. And the recycling business is failing.

    California's largest operator of recycling redemption centers shut down Monday and laid off 750 employees.

So much for all those "Green Jobs" that the 2020 Democrats keep promising.

RePlanet closed all 284 of its centers, and company president David Lawrence said the decision was driven by increased business costs and falling prices of recycled aluminum and PET plastic, the San Jose Mercury News reported.
