Should we take trash pickup from corporations and hire public workers and fund public trucks?

Post Body

Corporations are causing pile ups of trash and this is not okay. Think about what people are putting in their trashes and the bins are sitting there in the hot sun baking all day for multiple days with little to no good communication on when you can expect a pickup.

Most of us have had issues with trash pickup so Instead of paying for the problems of trash pickup, why aren't we investing in reliable public waste pickup?

We don't outsource road cleaning to the private sector and it seems to run pretty well - why don't we do the same for refuse pickup? A service we've come to rely on.

Y'know, one run by the bureaucracy? Public "servant" jobs.

It seems like public servant jobs are better anyways and they have real social power in the form of unions.

If I were in charge, I'd plan to replace priority waste asap and add jobs to the county, city or state government.
