Most associates in the cut throat world of corporate pay scales make due with raises in the single digits. Last year, California's homeless pulled off an astounding coup, raking in a 25% raise over 2006. How did they manage? Recycled beverage containers refund rates skyrocketed from $0.04 to $0.05 for containers less than 24 OZ and from $0.08 to $0.10 for those larger than 24 OZ.
Way to go homeless people. One more perk to go with your killer tan!

Hmm, so if you were charged a $0.09 bottle deposit instead of $0.10, would your economic situation dramatically improve? What kinds of products and services do you think you would get to enjoy with that extra $0.01?
