Deposit system

The deposit system for bottles and cans is a topic that divides people almost as much as taxes or vaccines. Some see it as a step toward a cleaner planet and more responsible consumption, while others view it as a clever way for the state to extract money under an environmental pretext. Supporters talk about millions of tons of plastic disappearing from forests and streets; opponents point to bureaucracy, queues, and higher prices. There are also questions about who will really profit from it: the environment or large corporations? Is the deposit system a real change for the better, or premium-grade green PR?
