        I love how so many people are diligent enough to put their trash AT a garbage can, but not so considerate as to realize "This one is full" and find another one.

        Uh, they're all full. They would have to take their trash with them--which is not a bad idea.

        🤯 just no. You incentivize and pass laws. You hold corporations accountable. Individual responsibility is nice and all but people just ain’t that good

        IMHO, true to a point. But who passes the laws? And who demands that specific laws be created? Collectively, it comes back to the individual. That pile of trash tells you something about a lot of individuals in the US.

        Yes, the metaphor for America being that we the people are blameless and someone else is always responsible. 😞
