Inflation?
EDIT: Not sure I understand the downvotes. The cost of milk goes up every year too, and it doesn't get any better. Between inflation and unsustainable municipal expenditures (e.g. pension plans), it's not surprising that trash service follows the same MO.
- zo1 9y agoMaybe the person meant: "increase the price more than the inflation rate". At least, that's how I'd read such a comment.
- varjag 9y agoMaybe, although few people really think of that when complaining about rising prices.
- VHRanger 9y agoDepends on the municipal government. Some municipal governments are truly corrupt and inefficient, so there might be rent seeking and increases in all sorts of costs. Because it doesn't happen where you live doesn't mean it doesn't happen where he lives.
