But what if I was in there, digging around, saw you, and shouted "Hey Vrai, there is big bags of money in here!!!" Come get some!!!"

I think the scenario is you are walking by a trashcan with a bunch of crap in it and you see money would you go in after it...and the answer to that is it depends on how much...is it a twenty? no i'm not going into the dumpster for a twenty...is it a Benjamin? depends on how much nastiness is involved...if it is a little more than a bit then no...is it a cool mill in a pile of crap? well i can get some great soap for a million bucks!
but seriously...comparing taking money out of a trashcan and eating food out of said trash can really doesn't compare in my book...i'm not taking the money and sticking it in my mouth...
mmmm money.....

I'd jump in for a shiny piece of paper.
I'd jump in if I were starving......humblepie.....
ugh....someone on these forums I'm sure have heard of this
I've
heard of it. They are right up there with the roadkill eaters. 
Or how about some nice track rabbit?

I would be waiting for Ashton to come out of hiding.
I'd say, "Geek, why are you digging in that dumpster? And what's that in your hair?"
Wouldn't it be easier to just get a job and buy a fresh cheeseburger?

Yes, but another Great Depresion would bring back American values and humility........just a thought.
Waste not, want not...penny saved is a penny earned...stitch in time and all that other stuff my fellow vegetarian Ben Franklin said yadda yadda...

Its been around for at least 4 or 5 years, just never took it seriously, and some kids are getting into this (and yes after rereading the article they selfadmittedly "dumpster drive" but what bothers me is their lack of work ethic
"Working Sucks - Where does the money you spend come from? You or your folks working long hours at a dehumanizing job, most likely. You don't have to compromise yourself and your humanity to the evil demon of wage-slavery! Working sucks and if a little scavenging can keep you from needing a job than go jump in a dumpster! Even if you do need to work to pay your bills, think about how much less you would have to work if you didn't have to buy food. "
They also recommend fermenting and brewing your own brew instead of buying beer or wine, which may explain the theory some :shrug: such as the following paragraph
"Privilege - We, in America, have so much and so many people all over the world have so little. Why do we have more? Because we're number one! Other folks are literally starving so that we can have fully-stocked shelves at our supermarkets and health food stores. If this concerns you (as it should) you can protest the unbalanced distribution in America and the world by sacrificing some of your privilege and feeding yourself off of the ridiculous excess of food instead of consuming products from that supermarket shelves we are so injustly privileged to have access to. "
My question is... what's the difference between getting it off a supermarket shelf versus a supermarket dumpster if its all about preventing waste
Not that I would ever go this route I don't feel its a horrible thing to do as we Americans are so wasteful. Do you realize how much food is wasted and could be sent to shelters, jails and such? That in itself is a crime when many of the people in this world are starving.
The sell by date on foods is just a guideline, I have eaten yogurt that was up to a week past the date and it was fine, prob more than fine, even more cultures. Some things do go rancid and for that you should use your nose. the place I used to work we would always get to take free out of date food home, hell I still have some free food in my freezer.
If it doesn't kill you.....
I went and got a Panera turkey sandwich for lunch. Ate half and threw the rest in the trash.
Bon appetit.
Bon appetit.

It's more fun to go throw it in the parking lot by some guys freshly washed Cadillac with 20" rims.
