Ah yes, we should install a million receptacles across the city dedicated to electronic waste because god forbid someone take 30 minutes out of their day to be responsible with their trash.

... yes? Why should the burden be on the individual? Why shouldn't the city be providing more services for its residents?

You reap the benefits of technological advancement, you are responsible for your waste. If you don't wanna recycle your batteries, don't buy machines with batteries.

Why doesn’t the government come and wipe my ass for me every time I take a shit? Why should the burden of being presentable in public be on the individual?
