> "Mr. Orta is a full-time trash picker ... Mr. Orta says his goal is to earn around $30 to $40 a day from his discoveries" That doesn't sound like a good use of his time at all. He's clearly a hard-working and reasonably smart/capable man if he can support himself by thrash-picking. Why does he not get a minimum-wage job? Even $11 an hour sounds like a improvement over his current situation. Are minimum wage jobs hard to come by in SFBA?
