  That’s the function of the parks service. And it’s taxpayer money, so it’s my money paying for it too.

    The function of the parks service is to maintain the parks, rivers, and forests (aka nature) of the area they operate. Idk what in your view makes “nature conservation” overlap with “making sure entitled lazy dickheads have a trash can every 10 feet they can ignore” but you might want to reevaluate your stance here. Govt funding is tight enough for these agencies trying to do what they can as it is. Catering to “But I don’t want to hold my trash for 10 minutes” like a whining baby is not their concern. Nor should anyones be. You’re a grown adult. Take your trash, shove it in a pocket or a bag until you can throw it away like an adult.

      Do you think you are currently speaking to any litterers? What in the world makes you think a) your rant will ever reach them, and b) that it will make them suddenly become decent people?

      People are shit. You get trash in the bin or trash on the ground. I prefer the bin.

        Well you’ve made it quite clear with your comments that you are a lazy litterer who also doesn’t return their carts.

        So yeah, there’s atleast one.

    So now instead of them being able to provide other services they need to continue piddling money away so you can be lazy and throw your trash where you please?

        They already have to because of the bins… remove them and people remove their garbage and all of a sudden. No garbage to look at it, no bins, no smell, no rodents and a pristine park.

        And you WANT to ruin it with excessive garbage cans to ease your laziness?

        You don’t return carts after shopping either I bet.

  With that logic, why go to this park? The parking lot is outside and with nature and your house would have trees and nature around. So we should just all stay home near our trashcans. Ridiculous.
