Idiots are trying to do the same thing in the US.  Already is like  
that in many states.

One local city charges $20 per item to dispose of computer equipment.

I'd go broke just tossing out the excess from routine trades and ebay  
grabs.

I'm all for recycling, but why is it that the little guy has to pay  
for it, when the fat cats are the ones who are so irresponsible in the  
materials used and the fact that nothing lasts very long?

In my area, it is precisely the people that really do recycle that  
have to pay the most and get the most grief over it.

Really screwed up system, and looks to be getting worse.
