You’re unbearably naive. My response would be the same. It’s another revenue generating scam to pour money into the Philadelphia black hole of corruption and crony bureaucracy. Don’t you get the entire point is to collect money??? How can you fall for this??? All they have to do is get recycling bins with a top that closes or switch to bagged recycling. Or maybe stop recycling paper all together of it ends ups dumped all over the city streets every trash day. This is classic dipshit progressivism. Create 3 fucking problems for every one you solve. Emphatically congratulate yourself for the problem you barely solved that wasn’t even a problem to begin with. You want less waste in the production of glass, paper and plastic? Let’s have everyone separate it all and fine them if they don’t and collect it twice! OH and now you can’t bag plastic, paper or glass so it blows all over the street and there’s trash everywhere now. Instead of going “this is fucking mistake,” propose a grand new solution, bang every Philadelphian with a car a few hundred dollars a year so they can drive a cleaning machine down the street and scrub the gutters. Oh does it matter at all that the problem isn’t dirt and oil, it’s trash?? Street cleaning is for dirt and oil in cities that have little rain. It’s not for fucking picking up newspapers, genius.
