Yes and No. My husband and I, with our 3 children hardly use that much. But, my two brother-in-laws that live with us order out constantly, that fills up the trash horribly fast.

If the bags were 55 gallon bags, my vote would have been yes.

NO not at all! An average household would be a family of 4. I think it would of been more fair to say 4 bags? I agree, people who use have more trash should pay more to dispose of it but the limit should be more than2 bags. I have a daycare and 3 kids so I have tons more. But 2 bags? come on!

The question of, “are two bags enough for your household” should be, “what size trash bags are big enough for your household”. To our family of 5, it is one 55 gallon bag a week. If the city would provide the 55 gallon bags instead of these smaller ones, that would be very helpful.

This is a scam by the City of Columbia. There needs to be a class action lawsuit by citizens also; for charging recycling fees for almost a year and not delivering. There has to be some low ball attorneys out there looking to make a buck or two!!!!

I have a 7 person household and have no idea how I am going to afford to buy the extra bags needed every week. I am very upset about this decision.

We never won against the ranked teams. Now we made our head coach one the highest paid in the college.

Mizzou football fans and boosters need to make a decision. Are we as content as fans with the job Drinkwitz is doing. If winning 8, 9, or 10 wins a season is good enough, the keep giving Drinkwitz and his staff contract extensions.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

We're too close to 2026 and it'll take a long time to reverse.

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade
