A guess. Nothing wrong with guessing.
"vast majority of stuff that is paid for" - what does that mean?
The cities/towns pay for trash to be taken away. Trash that may be in a bin that the town states is a "recycle" bin. Some company comes and takes it away. Where does that go?
It is now cheaper for the private trash collector to just put the recycles into a landfill someplace. Presently it costs more to attempt to actually recycle. Any towns pay more for this?
Simple economics.
Or simply put. Who cares?
