Illegal Trash Dumping in Los Angeles, CA
In Los Angeles, CA there have been reports of illegal dumping going on in South Los Angeles of disgusting garbage. The garbage consisted of dead roosters, several sofas, old tires, household garbage, containers with motor oil in them. It basically sat there for over a month, and by the time that the city crews got around to cleaning it up, the trash was spreading down the street.

I don't understand how this city has all of this money and they cannot take care of the simplest duties such as cleaning up trash and watching out for people that are dumping their trash illegally. I though that they had regular trash pick-up like many other cities in southern California. As a resident of southern California, in my area this would never occur, and the city would face fines from the county if that were to occur. We have regular trash pick up on a weekly regular basis, which consists of trash pick up, and recycling bin pick up. If there is any need for a special pickup then this is where you pick up the phone and call the Waste Management division to let them know that you need to have a special pick up and they will take care of that.
Los Angeles has so much money and I see that it is a battle of the “haves” and “have nots”. In the poorer cities they do not seem to have a care of in the world about them, but the richer cities this would never occur. There would probably be police or security watching over the area to make sure that no one is dumping trash where they are not suppose to. I know that there are elections currently going on for the city of Los Angeles so I am sure that it is mostly politically motivated. So don't you think a city with so much money would be able to handle an issue such as this even if it is a poorer area?
