California, known for its progressive policies and environmental initiatives, made headlines a decade ago when it implemented a statewide ban on single-use plastic bags. The move was hailed as a step towards reducing plastic waste and protecting the environment. However, a recent analysis of the policy reveals that it has backfired, leading to unintended consequences and exacerbating the plastic pollution problem. Now, instead of reconsidering the approach, California is doubling down on its efforts, signaling a troubling trend in environmental legislation.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
