        No. Straws represent .02% of US plastic waste. It's an empty measure, and one that makes life harder for the disabled. You can stop having this conversation now.

        No!!! Seriously? Maybe focus on more pressing issues like 26 year old men and women still being on mommy and daddys insurance.
