Every summer I used to see the students with their brooms and dust-pans sweeping up the crud on the side walks….they seem to be awol this year….I have never seen the streets as dirty as they are….what gives???

Actually, I’ve seen them cleaning the streets on several occasions.
shouldnt the complaint be for people to be a bit more considerate and not litter?
Homie, you’re not suggesting people take responsibility for their actions, are you? But then, who would they blame for the mess all around? They wouldn’t be able to blame Tim Hortons, or the free newspapers, or the evil grocery store bags. Oh, the horror of it all! People thinking beyond themselves-that would upset the delicate balance of society and nature.
The streets are a dirty place
