LOLLL TRUE! And plastic bags NEVER decompose (at least I think), cloth are also less hurtful on the hands, plastic ones dig into you. Also, if you have kids/animals, they would be a chiking/suffocating hazard o.o

Plastic Bags are better than cloth bags because they are more conveniant and have a wide range of applications that make sence economically.

The main pro's mention to the defense of cloth bags are it's durability and friendlyness towards the enviroment. However, the fact of the matter is plastic bags can be just as durable and when recycled, just as good for the enviroment.

Furthermore a cloth bags alternitave could never be as effective when it comes to common everday uses such as garbage bags, cereal bags (within the boxes), chip bags, utensil containers (fast food), or even ziplock bags.

At the end of the day the idea that cloth bags are better is only good at first glace then reality steps in and you realize how much we rely on plastic bags in everyday life. That's why plastic bags reign king.

Idk I lyke talkin' x.x
