Just got $10.80 for 3 bags of crushed cans.. Drove 35 miles in my pickup, about a push vrs the price of gas.. Chatted with the owner, expressed my satisfaction that there was a place in Dadeville to recycle.. He said that he would probably have to close in August. EPA now requires he buy thousands of dollars in hardware and software to provide video feed to his computer to document all transactions, including positive ID of the seller, including thumb prints.. And at the end of the year, he is then required to send 1099's to all of his customers so they pay tax on their recycled cans.. Shoot, probably constitution in the eyes of SCOTUS.. However, another small, local business closes it's doors, more unemployed, and my cans now go into landfill.. Thank you federal government, you people are brilliant..
