[quote=Anonymous]DC needs to accompany the bag tax by banning flimsy plastic bags, as California and a number of localities have done. Shoppers can use reusable bags or opt for paper, which carries the 5 cent fee. The low to medium end retailers that use plastic bags like Giant and CVS will cry foul and no doubt will send bags of cash to the DC council to try to block such a ban. But their arguments didn't prevail in CA. The plastic bags blow away, clog rivers and never decay in landfills while paper decays (and of course can be recycled).[/quote]
