- subcosmos 8y agoNot sure why you were downvoted. This is absolutely correct and why the city is paying for street cleaning in the areas most affected, in line with the efforts of the City of San Diego in their downtown areas.
- kingnothing 8y agoAre the street sweepers in SF effective at actually sanitizing the urine and feces or are they really aerating the excrement so any diseases contained within are more easily transmitted to passersby? I'm guessing the latter.

- loeg 8y agoLack of public toilets, and a lot of people.

- loeg 8y agoCan I? How much do you think someone who shits in the street today is willing or can afford to pay for private toilet infrastructure? I disagree with RMS about a lot of things, but I don't see how this would be solved without public spending.
