As the great republican depression presses on, and Obama swims upstream against its heavy currents, raw materials get scarce in America, and jobs of any sort are even scarcer! I remember a time in the initial panic of the recession, some folks planned to horde recyclables, much as they would cash or coins, or jewelry to be brought out later in the crunch, for a crust of bread! We are not past those days yet, and more than a few good folks make a living collecting and recycling aluminum cans! At one time, scrap dealers paid by the pound for iron, copper, aluminum, brass, bronze, glass, and plastics! Those days are soon upon us again, as the “American Dream” and “disposable everything” come to and end and realities of the 21st Century crash down on our heads. Recycling is good. Getting paid cash at the door by a collector is better! Just and example of one more job not filled in America, the long lost and well loved “Junk man” Usually named “Sal” and driving an old wrecked truck, and willing to take, for free or otherwise anything he could get! Where did he go after WWII?

Very informative, Julie. This strikes me as yet another unintended beneficial consequence of Internet connectivity. There’s probably somebody out there interested in every single object you want to throw away. All you have to do is find them!
