My local Hy Vee has the machines you have to put your bottles and cans in. They are in a separate room, and it reeks of stale beer. The people that staff it and keep the machines emptied are mentally challenged. It's good that this particular store hires people that normally would not be able to find a job anywhere else, but it is kind of a crappy job.
I think there are many people that are on very limited incomes that supplement those incomes by collecting bottles for redemption. To take this away from them would not be a very nice thing to do. Plus there are youth groups that sometimes raise funds in this manner.
