You see this?
The tiny plastic particles found in many facial cleansers and soaps promise a gentle scrubbing and luxuriously smooth skin. But those little beads of grit are also piling up in waterways, where they can suck up toxins and harm wildlife, environmentalists say.

Here's my take on this.....
Springfield should be doing nothing right now except devoting all their time to the top 3 priorities:
- state debt
- pension funding
- jobs
We don't need to be wasting time talking about hand soap and bath gels.
In the grand scope of things.... with both the state and Chicago rapidly moving towards bankruptcy, little plastic beads have zero, zilch, nada importance.
Focus energies on solving the big stuff, then we can work on the little stuff.
Out for now....
