What poetic justice for the greenies.
I thought they WANTED less trash!
Will the citizens of Berkley start abandoning their trash and broken appliances on the city streets? This is how Detroit does it. Same with Cleveland. And they are all dem strongholds.
Do what they do when water is rationed and revenues drop, raising rates on the services that ARE used.
Idiots.
Google map the San Francisco bay area. Then move to the east. There is a mountain range between the bay area and the central valley. There are only a couple of road over the mountain range and for the most part is is wide open empty land.
They could build a landfill up in those hills that would take all the trash for the bay area for years and never fill up. Like most things the left believe in, it is a lie. We do not need to recycle, we have run for all our trash.
The only problems California has is management.
For years Democrats (starting with Jerry Brown) wanted us out of our cars so they purposely stopped building new freeways.
Gas taxes that should go for maintenace of roads and bridges has been redirected to other things.
For years California Schools were some of the best in the nation, then Democrats got it in their heads it was unfair for some school district to be better than others. They mandated all money for schools go to Sacramento first, then divided up to the local district. This effectively took the local tax payers (and parents) out of any say on how the schools should be ran. The unions took over and look what we have.
Calfornia once had the ninth strongest economy in the world. The brain trust in Sacramento Democrats and Unions took over and decided the primary role of government was social engineering. High taxes, excessive regulations have run many producers out of the state. They wonder why they now have less money to play with.
The biggest business in California was once farming. The brain trust is currently killing that business by shutting off water to the farmers so that some nameless fish can survive. You can only hope that Mexico steps up food production because if they keep it up California will be out of the food business.
The unions and media continue to support the Democrats. I can the only bright spot is when the parasites kill the host they will die also.
Guess what. About three months after the drastic drop, the city government announced they were going to raise the water rates by 25% to make up the decrease in revenue.
The end result was usage went back to the old amount almost immediately. Typical government stupidity.
“...the very nature of garbage changes”
Well then, suggest you hire a consultant for $657,000 and study his results at a “Garb Getaway” retreat up at a Calistoga spa on the taxpayers dime.
No, garbage doesn’t change. Liberals just pronounce it differently.
