    I love the hustle. I have deep respect for anyone who gets up every morning and works hard for their family. My biggest long term concern is the eventual consequences from the scrapers who take short cuts.

    It’s easy to toss hazardous waste in the trash
    It’s easy to snip ac lines and release the Freon
    It’s easy to burn insulated wire
    It’s easy to bust crt glass and throw it in the trash or bury it



    Because of this, it will eventually become easy for environmental lobby groups to persuade laws where scrap yards can no longer buy from the public, buy certain materials without certificates, etc. A lot of us on this forum may one day be saying, “well, at least we had a good run”. Maybe [hopefully] I’m over exaggerating
