Three separate places I went to at 8 in the morning. Gas station, dunkin’ donuts, and then a convenience store. All of them, trash is full. People wonder why they litter in the USA, there’s nowhere to throw away trash when you’re out. It’s unbelievable People can just go to work and choose not to do their job anymore. That people see this and they don’t have any problem with it, no interest at all to keep things neat and tidy and clean. Nope.
In the US we teach kids that trash men are suckers and idiots that didn’t work hard enough in school! Also, that trash is an externality: Someone else’s problem.
“We pay taxes for people to clean that up! Why should I spend my valuable time doing someone else’s job‽”
It’s an awful culture.
Same people that complain that taxes are the government stealing from them.
I teach my kids that trash collectors are doing a necessary job that few want to do and that they get paid out the ass to do it.
Garbage men make so much money
