The only issue is that glass bottles are too cheap and heavy.

They should at least have a 25 cent deposit as well. Right now no homeless person picks those up, because it's just not worth it.

Even with 25 cents there would still be a disincentive due to the weight, but I also don't want to incentivize bottle makers to produce more plastic, for them to lower the price at the counter.
