For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I wish we had a plastic tax. Everything is wrapped in so much unnecessary plastic.

NJ had a single use plastic bag tax. To get around it companies increased the thickness of plastic bags and gave it for free. Apparently the thickness is what separated a single use bag with a reusable one. Politicians are clowns ๐Ÿคก.

Politicians are clowns is what you said while it was companies skirting the spirit of the law by exploiting a loophole.

Amazing that is your take

Imagine writing laws as a job and leaving such an obvious loophole.

Yes, politicians are clowns.
