He still makes a good point though, just used the wrong context.
The trash liner I use is plastic, but the trash inside of it is not. Sure I can recycle the bag, but where is all the trash that I collected going to go since I got rid of the bag? Are you suggesting that I dump it into my trash bin which is picked up weekly? I imagine that I would get maggots within a day or so, and that's unsanitary. I feel that your solution really doesn't answer the question he asked, and isn't a solution for anything without providing an answer to where the trash goes while the bag is being recycled.
How about we look at biodegradable bags?
For a normal glad smell good trash bag, you get 110 bags for $12.41. The best bag that I could find for biodegradable (per reviews) was this one at $21.35 for 48 bags. I researched a bunch of biodegradable bags, and all of them had the same complaints. It can't hold trash for more than a couple of days without breaking down (especially when even small amounts of liquid are in the bag), and it doesn't hold odor well.
After doing the math, results yield that the average Glad bag costs around $.11 per bag. The average biodegradable bag costs around $.44 per bag.
So there are two factors here.
/u/Atwenfor made the second point that I listed, and he is absolutely correct. However nobody is talking about the first point. In case you're thinking "it's only 21$, people can afford it". My answer to that is no, not everyone can afford an increase on a limited budget. Also nobody wants trash from a ripped bag on their floor, along with a smelly kitchen.
Do you have a better solution? I assume that you must be an expert on the topic based on how rude you were to him/her for asking a question. I'm all ears.
