Vermonters aren't redeeming/recycling at a higher rate than places without deposits and recycling is strong here for things without deposits so the program is past its usefulness and should probably just go away.

For now I just consider every nickel a donation and my.cans and bottles go in the blue bin with everything else. Unredeemed deposits are sent to the state's Clean Water Fund. It's less than $1 per week out of my pocket.

I recently switched from Visible to Mint, mostly because when the Verizon network that runs Visible gets congested the Visible service is severely curtailed. Mint is better in this regard, reception is a tossup depending on what part of town or the state I am in, but Mint seems to be picky with certain devices. I needed to do far more tuning to my Pixel 6a to make it work well with mint than I've had to do with any carrier I've used in the last 10 years.

Homelessness is notoriously difficult to quantify, even our own census bureau admits that. Depending on who is doing to estimating the real numbers are two to five times higher than what is counted.

And why the need for name calling, can't you have discourse like an adult? How many accounts have you been through at this point?
