Those Wacky Tree-huggers

People in Spokane, Washington have resorted to smuggling in dishwasher detergent from out-of-state because those wacky tree-huggers have banned all dishwasher detergent that works in favor of some green eco-friendly brand. These loons actually want to legalize marijuana but ban dishwashing detergent.

"The quest for squeaky-clean dishes has turned some law-abiding people in Spokane into dishwater-detergent smugglers. They are bringing Cascade or Electrasol in from out of state because the eco-friendly varieties required under Washington state law don't work as well. Spokane County became the launch pad last July for the nation's strictest ban on dishwasher detergent made with phosphates, a measure aimed at reducing water pollution. The ban will be expanded statewide in July 2010, the same time similar laws take effect in several other states."
