I can get the car picked-up for repair if I want to.
Where can I subscribe for a service "picking up unsorted garbage"? The problem is that garbage collectors are granted monopoly and use it to extract free labor from customers.
- thecrazyone 8y agoThis is govt monopoly btw, not some private monopoly like Google (which is earned and can go away).
- Firadeoclus 8y agoNo one stops anyone from providing that service.
- monort 8y agoMaybe it depends on the city, but often it's a municipal government granted monopoly. E.g. in San Francisco it's Recology. https://www.aoausa.com/magazine/?p=4982 https://www.aoausa.com/magazine/?p=4982 I bet, each city, that enforces waste sorting, has a monopoly.
- Firadeoclus 8y agoSorry, I should have been clearer. What I meant is a sorting service, not a collection service.
