I am not sure what's the term CRV or CV but where I live in CA it is definitely not 1 buck per bottle. Probably 5 cents. The coke/water bottle costs a lot more so adding 5 cents is a small tax and does not do much to change the b

As part of free speech, can a company from somewhere in south send out parts in boxes with confederate flag on the box? We make decisions to curtail free speech everyday so how's this different?
