    Just make the deposit equal to the price of the product.

    A three dollar bottle of coke has a three dollar deposit. You get your three dollars back when you take it to a bottle center.

    But that would hurt consumer demand. Can’t have that!

      So it’s all supposed to be free? The actual soda inside, the machinery for bottling etc. ?

      Also, how would free stuff hurt consumer demand? It would hurt income, yes, but not demand .

      Also also, do people really need that much of a incentive to throw their shit away at the appropriate place rather than just on the curb?

        No no no, I mean the price should be doubled and half be a deposit.

        And yes, take a walk next to a highway. They need this.
