Jon Halsey: Comments on mandatory trash pickup Comments re article 90993 Link WKYT story illustrates need for mandatory trash pickup Jon Halsey writes: The majority of the roadside trash that Emily and I pick-up is "Fast Food" wrappers and drink containers, mostly soft drinks. I don't understand how "mandatory trash pick-up would change that.Good point: But it will address the problem of dumping, in town dumpsters and trash cans, along roadsides and around the lakes, as the article and CM comments noted. It's going to take more to do the job including a tax on take away food wrappers and boxes and, particularly, a bottle and can tax, at the point of manufacture, distribution, and final sales area. But politicians aren't likely to have the backbone to face these truths. The sunset on the laws, when, in a couple of generations from now, we have educated all of the next generation on basics of human courtesies.- EW 2017-06-09 05:37:23 | Comments | Printable version
