Why do poor people throw trash on the ground in their neighborhoods?
I keep seeing it. No one picks up their yard and I witness people just dropping it in the streets. What gives?

Because most don't own the property. Check out how quickly brand-new government housing is destroyed by the tenants. Sense of ownership and community are key factors in maintaining a neighborhood.

Never see people do that but yeah some people have a lot of trash. Maybe they can't afford a trip to the dump. Somone thought I threw trash on my roof to be funny but I was doing it because the neighbors dogs would tear up my trash bags back when I lived in a trailer. Lukily the dog got hit by a car and I built a fence.

I don't know about poor people but I know in general liberals are more inconsiderate with trash than conservatives. If you doubt me just check the Washington Mall after a rally. After a conservative event the only place you find trash is in the trash receptacles. After a liberal rally you will see trash all over the place. I think it has to do with attitude, conservatives have the idea that they are responsible for their own messes while liberals feel that the government will clean up after them.

My answer is this. I haven't any theory. and beneficial extra desirable than black human beings clutter, yet you recognize what?... I ve seen extra black human beings than i'm able to assume the two arms do this impressive element. here s the shame. It doesn t rely why. What concerns, is it s unhappy with the aid of fact it makes it difficult on black people who DON T have those undesirable morals. It s the impressive habit which perpetuates undesirable stereotypes which persons start to affiliate with race pondering the percentages of seeing such with one extra desirable than the different. the real subject is, absolutely everyone at present is so prepared to guard others till now being common with themselves approximately what s incorrect with our society, not to show racial cultures at present. all of us are at recent programed to deny how we re not racist, or not judging, for concern somebody gained t answer an common question with out persecuting or judging in reaction. If we tried for a 2d to handle to the area of the unique question instead of politically perfect suited inconsistencies of it, we d all be able to start common efforts on the certainty of what's incorrect with civilization at present.

People are slobs. Some of them never heard of a trash can either.
