When the city and the state stops taking 50%+ of my money, I'll start cleaning the streets (or, more likely, will pay for someone to clean them). San Francisco

When the city and the state stops taking 50%+ of my money, I'll start cleaning the streets (or, more likely, will pay for someone to clean them).
San Francisco 2020 budget is ~$13 billion (https://londonbreed.medium.com/san-franciscos-budget-how-it-works-and-what-you-need-to-know-cf45df1f8ec https://londonbreed.medium.com/san-franciscos-budget-how-it-...)
This is the money that is supposed to pay for cleaning the streets and many more things.
For comparison, Austin budget is $4.5 billion (https://www.kvue.com/article/money/economy/austin-city-council-approves-budget/269-aeef289d-3821-439c-8205-70c686177bf6 https://www.kvue.com/article/money/economy/austin-city-counc...)
What you see is unbelievable corruption and incompetence of city government, not the lack of money for cleaning the streets.
