    Said no one ever.

    People so mad about straws act like you cannot possibly work against a problem in more than a single way.

      The problem is we are not trying multiple ways. We only try the ineffective ones to avoid trying the effective ones.

        And by “we” you mean actually “corporations”? Of course they aren’t willing to blame and fine themselves for saving money.

            Which are basically controlled by the corporations. My point is that there are many people who want to do more and several groups trying to make it happen. They aren’t up against an easy fight. So when a small win happens like plastic straw bans, maybe we can want more without dismissing it as bullshit.
