The california government will pay you to collect electronic junk.
They collect $8 for every monitor etc and are "supposed" to use that money to keep electronic stuff out of landfills.
If you do the stuff they want and do all the paperwork they (we) will pay you to waste time and effort. I don't like it and think it's stupid to do somethnig that's a joke just to make the libs feel good but it is what it is.
