Can we talk about how outrageous it is that our city just flat out declines to perform a basic municipal service for a full third of the year?

Plenty of cities offer bulk waste disposal at curbside for no additional charge, included in your monthly trash utility payment.

My last house was larger, on a much larger piece of land, and in a much nicer school district. I paid 1/3 what I pay here in property tax, and that included waste disposal (including bulk items, as much as I wanted to get rid of, year round). Not sure what Worcester is doing with my money, but something seems pretty silly here.

Our money is mostly going to the cops to pay fraudulent overtime, buy military equipment and horses, and fund brutality and civil rights settlements.
