Mark Pocan Sucks

For everyone that says "Oh that Mark Pocan he is such a good guy and he cares"

BULLSHIT

Pocan decided he would lick the asses of a few environmentalists the other day by trying to pass some bullshit about no plastic bags allowed in stores any more. He goes on about dependence of foreign oil, polluting the land fills, Polar Bears drowning, Baby Seal Bashing.

Well, well, well Mr. Hypocrite seems that the only places that can use dreaded LDPE (low density Polyethylene)(the shit used in bags) is Pocan himself. See Mr. Pocan owns a sign shop in Madison, not a large shop but I am sure it pays the bills, and canvas shopping bags. To top it off he is not using PE he is using PVC for his vinyl banners, lettering, through his solvent ink ink-jet machines. PVC is used a lot in the business for signs and banners because it is inexpensive and strong, but it is extremely harsh to recycle, made primarily in Asia, and of all the regular poly uses the most harsh chemicals to make.

For one 3' x 10' banner he produces, is the equivalent to the same amount of resin in over 500 bags from the Pig. How does the old saying go "Do as I say not as I do." If I am an expert at something, it is the large/grand format printing market, and there is so many things that you can now do to print more "Green". I'm 33 and have sold in this market for 10 years, the "Green" movement is the biggest push I have ever seen the printing industry make. There is not one thing on his site that talks about printing cleaner for the environment. While I will not say what I do I make good money off the people that want to print this way, and for those who say "You should let him know"

Fuck him, they way that dude talks he should have led the charge.
