Theocracies

Warren is being clever again...

"...what makes our own society unique, is not its freedom from religion but rather the peculiar nature of the religion upon which our theocracy rests. That is to say, we have an upside-down religion, in which there is no God, but that "Not God" commands an obedience more absolute than God ever required, stipulating everything from the sanctity of antinomian sexual behaviour, down to how we should sort our garbage.

Connecting recycling with soup. They can make crude oil out of regular garbage, with no toxins left ofter, and the process fuels itself. Its called "thermal depolymerization" -- basically pressure-cooking ordinary garbage. (it is in wikipedia). No sorting necessary.
