We claim: 1. A material container, comprising: a. a flexible layer established in a substantially planar configuration to provide a rectangular center body portion having a pair of opposed sides each correspondingly coupled to a first triangular end portion and a second triangular end portion in an open condition of said material container; b. a closure element coupled to substantially the entirety of a perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration which commences operation proximate to an apex of said first triangular end portion of said flexible layer established in said substantially planar configuration and terminates operation proximate to an apex of said second triangular end portion of said flexible layer to generate an amount of enclosed space in a closed condition of said material container; and c. a restraint element connected to said perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration of said flexible layer proximate said apex of said first triangular end portion, said restraint element having a configuration which extends a distance outwardly from said perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration and having a first surface configured to engage a support surface at a location outside of said perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration and a second surface configured to engage a foot of a person, said restraint element capable of securement to said support surface at said location outside of said perimeter of said substantially planar configuration by said foot engaged to said second surface of said restraint element. 2. A material container as described in claim 1, wherein said closure element comprises a self interlocking two part fastener having a first part coupled to a first perimeter portion of said flexible layer and a second part coupled to a second perimeter portion of said flexible layer. 3. A material container as described in claim 2, wherein said closure element comprises a zipper. 4. A material container as described in claim 2, wherein said first triangular end portion has a first angle “x” established between a base of said first triangular end portion and a first leg of said first triangular end portion and a second angle “y” established between said base of said first triangular end portion and a second leg of said first triangular end portion act to alter an amount of force applied to operate said closure, and wherein said first angle “x” and said second angle “y” are substantially the same angle. 5. A material container as described in claim 4, wherein said first angle “x” and said second angle “y” are each between about fifteen degrees and about forty five degrees. 6. A material container as described in claim 5, wherein said second triangular end portion has a first angle “w” established between a base of said second triangular end portion and a first leg of said second triangular end portion and a second angle “z” established between said base of said second triangular end portion and a second leg of said second triangular end portion, and wherein said first angle “w” and said second angle “z” are substantially the same angle, and wherein said first angle “w” and said second angle “z” are each between about fifteen degrees and about forty five degrees. 7. A material container as described in claim 6, further comprising a force dissemination element coupled to said restraint element, said force dissemination element having a pair of opposed surfaces, wherein a first of said opposed surfaces has a configuration adapted to engage said support surface at a location outside of said perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration, and wherein a second of said opposed surfaces has a configuration adapted to engage said foot of said person to secure said restraint element in relation to said support surface at said location outside of said perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration, thereby forces generated by engagement of said foot of said person with said second of said opposed surfaces spreads over a increased area of said second of said opposed surfaces engaged with said support surface. 8. A material container as described in claim 7, further comprising a first grip element coupled at a location on the outside surface of said substantially planar configuration at a location proximate to the vertex of said first angle “x”. 9. A material container as described in claim 8, further comprising a second grip element coupled at a location on the outside surface of said substantially planar configuration at a location proximate to the vertex of said second angle “y”. 10. A material container as described in claim 9, wherein each of said first grip element and said second grip have a location on an outside surface of said substantially planar configuration grippable in second hand of a person as said first hand of said person operates said closure element and said foot of said person engages said restraint element to secure said restraint element in relation to said support surface at said location outside of said perimeter edge of said substantially planar configuration. 11. A material container as described in claim 10, wherein said force dissemination element has a configuration of a stylized foot. 12. A material container as described in claim 10, further comprising a flap coupled to said flexible layer which locates upon operation of said closure element between an amount of material positioned on said planar configuration of said material container in said open condition and said closure element. 13. A material container as described in claim 12, wherein said flap comprises a plurality of flaps coupled to said flexible layer each of which locate upon operation of said closure element between an amount of material positioned on said planar configuration of said material container in said open condition and a portion of said closure element. 14. A material container as described in claim 13, further comprising a securement element coupled to said flap which acts upon said support surface to resist movement of said planar configuration upon said support surface. 15. A material container as described in claim 14, wherein said securement element comprises an amount of weight coupled to said flap element. 16. A material container as described in claim 15, wherein said amount of weight comprises an amount of particulate contained within said flap element. 17. A material container as described in claim 16, wherein said amount of weight comprises at least one rod element coupled to said flap element. 18. A material container as described in claim 15, wherein said securement element comprises at least one stake coupled to said flap element. 19. A material container as described in claim 18, wherein said flap element comprises said plurality of flap elements and wherein said at least one stake element couples to at least one of said plurality of flap elements. 20. A material container as described in claim 14, further comprising a closure cover coupled to said flexible layer which operates between a warning position and a closure cover position. 21. A material container as described in claim 20, further comprising a warning indicia coupled to a surface of said closure cover observable in said warning position. 22. A material container as described in claim 1, wherein said flexible layer is selected from the group consisting of a vinyl, a polyethylene, a polypropylene, a nylon, a polyester, a ultraviolet treated polyester, a polyethylene having a vinyl coat, a polypropylene having a vinyl coat, a nylon having a vinyl coat, a polyester having a vinyl coat, a ultraviolet treated polyester having a vinyl coat, and a canvass.
