Recycling on the backs of poor people:

Wisconsin town gets $46,000 for recycling bins

MADISON — Hundreds of state employees may get laid off, local governments are bracing for deep funding cuts, and cell phone users may pay a new fee to help plug Wisconsin’s $6.6 billion budget hole.

But $46,000 worth of new recycling bins may soon be on their way to the environmentally conscious townsfolk in Wrightstown, Wis.

Late Tuesday, probably after most of the 2,000 people in the southern Brown County town had gone to bed, the Legislature’s budget committee agreed to provide the money for the new recycling bins.

Even the town’s treasurer and clerk didn’t know about the vote Wednesday.

“I have not a clue,” said clerk Donna Martzahl. “I can’t imagine that we’re getting that.”
