Dorner, Taxes, Police, Great Plastic Garbage Patch

Just finished by 2012 taxes and it was less than exciting.  I am paying more in taxes in 1 month than my total return for the year.  I'm starting to understand that Bill Cosby post on Facebook...the one about I work hard yet I have to give my money to people not willing to put in the same effort.  I used the help at one point so I am thankful it's available.  There is more government waste that needs to be fixed over helping a fellow American.  I'd be happy to give up part of my check if it really did go towards the greater good.  I then read the next post down on Facebook....this one is about Congress and Senators salaries when they retire and it compares them to teacher etc...pretty sad how corrupt our system is.  I think I will start looking for a gov't gig again...great pay and impossible to get fired from it. 
What's up with this Dorner dude - he's gonna kill some cops for sure.
The first Pope in 600 years to step down???
Ok back to business ideas.
What about buying a big wood chipper and instead of chipping wood you breakdown plastic?
Set up bins to blow a specific grade of plastic into the shredder.  By breaking it down to smaller pieces another plastic company can melt it down to a liquid for whatever use it wants.  I don't think you can get a lot of money for plastic though.  Which means you'd need a lot of plastic to cover your costs and possibly squeak up a living.  Would be cool to go to landfills and just empty all of the plastic out and see it reused.  Or that Great Plastic Garbage Patch floating around in the middle of the ocean...can't we do something with that material? 
I was thinking of a bread shop to sell Pao de queijo cheeze bread.  Taste good, possibly some home delivery.  Probably have to set up shop in the Hermosa or Manhattan Beach...think there is a bigger Brazillian population there. 
Anything to get some breaks like the corporations do.  I know the biz would need to be set up in Nevada that's for sure.  Possibly have an operation in Vegas too.
Helps to write this stuff to put out in the universe so that it hopefully comes true.
Hello Thomas...hope you are feeling better.  It's cold outside. 
Spread the word and carry on.
