Why should I have to throw my garbage in designated garbage bins? They can just hire someone to go pick up trash in the ditches. Why does everyone defend the government? Just hire someone to go clean the side of the road all day long. Hire 2, 3 or 40000 people

I worked at garbage disposal and loved going outside and pick up the trash people threw from their cars.

I agree.

And BTW, in the US for example (and increasingly more countries), the designated bins no longer go different places. They all end up in the same landfill. We need to stop producing so much trash or make the companies who make all the plastic pay to dispose of the products at the end of their lives.

So therefore, you think it's better for people to just chuck their trash wherever they go? Milk-cart, straight out the kitchen window. Pet bottle, right out the car window. Candy wrapper, just toss it on the ground.

You really don't need to mention the US as your example of choice. We know you're American. We can tell.

I didn’t say that. I said none of that. I just don’t see how a company can/should pass on their responsibility to the consumer. If the company provides trash they should be responsible to clean it up. If they provide carts, they should also clean it up. Stop taking responsibility for them.

I’m American, I recycle if I can, i carry my trash until I find a bin, hell I pick up other’s trash at the beach and in parks. But a company parking lot is not my responsibility. Let them clean up their mess. Stop being such a cuck.

To which you replied

I agree

So you literally just said you agree that we shouldn't throw garbage in bins, and just have paid people go pick it up for us wherever we throw it.

You're not standing up to the grocery store by leaving your cart where-ever you please in the lot. You're fucking up for everyone else, people's cars get hit when said cart sooner or later is picked up by the wind and roll away. Carts lying around blocking the passages in the lot.

But you expect other people to go and pick up the mess you made. Like I said. You don't have to say you're American. We can tell.

I agree they should hire people to pick up trash from the ditches. I never said it was okay to dump trash in the ditches. Learn to read.

People’s cars get hit, and the grocery store should be liable. It’s their parking lot, their cart, their responsibility; hell, have someone walk the groceries to everyone’s cars.

I don’t make a mess; I leave the company’s cart where they can go get it away from cars.

The real question is how did they get everyone to argue with each other about this cart nonsense when it should have always been the company’s responsibility?

What do you mean "learn to read". Your response to that comment was "I agree". Did you not understand what you were agreeing to perhaps?

When you get a cart, you are borrowing it. In my part of the world. You're expected to return what you borrow. Not just leave it wherever you wish and say "it's your responsibility to get it since you borrowed it to me"

But I see you do things differently
