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.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
