Why are most wine and liquor bottles exempt from state redemption recycling programs?

Asked by AskZilla (127points) October 14th, 2014

Glass soda bottles, aluminum soda cans, beer cans, plastic beverage bottles are allowed to be part of state redemption recycling programs, but most large wine and liquor bottles get an exemption from this, with the exception of glass beer bottles. Why?????

The fact they are exempt just causes more litter and pollution and certainly isn’t “green” minded
