You are sorting of making my argument for me. You are pointing out one single place in the entire world, and it happens to be near you. While this is unfortunate, it seems like a simple solution is to petition the local government for either porta-potties or enforcement of the law.
If the parking lot is not near you, not sure why you would care at all... If it's that bad, why would these people #vanlife there? It sounds gross.
- sooheon 8y agoFor all we know they do that as well. This is a more general petition to the world at large not to behave like they're entitled to more just because #vanlife.

- RobertRoberts 8y agoYou may have a contradiction in your perspective. Well off people living #vanlife aren't going to live in squalor. It sounds like you have something against poor people living in vehicles?
- notatoad 8y agoyour expectations are incorrect, unless you think that people living in late-model mercedes sprinter vans that have been camperized by custom van outfitters count as poor people.
- RobertRoberts 8y agoYour assumption seems reasonable. But all cultural changes disaffect someone, but it doesn't mean they are bad as a whole. And this cultural movement seems to be negatively affecting you in some way. There's an old saying that may be useful here, "if you can't beat them, join them." Why not try living in a van for even just a week and see what is going on from their perspective? I did this with homeless people when I was younger (I lived on streets for a few days while in college) and it changed my perspective on them for the rest of my life.
