E waste

I have been reading more and sure the earth is in trouble & just like when you load your truck for the yard each LB counts for the final pay out .Clearly the earth was over loaded with pollution at the start of the industrial age . The human race is not smart as a whole, we destroy trees that are needed , we also just keep loading the truck each day with more and more things , I am but one person, and I see how fast I can collect to a point I can't processes my inventory , how these developing nation people do what they do is surprising . It's a waste how in America with many people out of work that don't take all those tons and process it our selves ( how about people in prison) and do it clean .
Us as scrappers should under stand how it really works . small scale is same as huge scale . As I have heard developing countries need metal ,I feel one reason they can pay higher amts from certain sources is cause they have other sources that they pay very little for the CU AL & other metals . The work of the poor class helps to balance out what becomes there true purchase price , A communist country I am sure controls the metals from the poor .
Any way as some members say - if it were easy everybody would do it well the real competition are these countries , & to think how town to town laws keep trying to make it hard for you and me to collect E trash, so the state can appear to do the right thing, opposed to us. Low and behold where does it end up, - being burned with complete abandonment. We all own the air we breath and eventually we do get air from china as it circles the earth
