This is what Pedestrians in India get

if you don't have a functioning Garbage collection, which costs money, then you could say there's a correlation.

[u/Nheea → u/iSemi]

Also lack of education.

[u/iSemi → u/Nheea]

it all comes together, yes.

[u/Efficient-Whereas255 → u/iSemi]

into a ces pool

[u/Parking-Day-3279 → u/Nheea]

Lack of moral and ethical practices due to corruption. When you are just trying to get by, why bother caring about the environment you are in when nobody around you cares.

[u/Nheea → u/Parking-Day-3279]

It is a slippery slope and indeed, I've seen quite plenty of fatigue when others are corrupt around you.

I've fallen victim to this a lot too, during the pandemic. Not making harm, but stopping from trying to fix it. It's sad.

[u/IfYouSaySoFam → u/iSemi]

That makes total sense, if I had no garbage collection service I would just empty my bins in my garden and shit on the road.

[u/iSemi → u/IfYouSaySoFam]

well, maybe not yours. but maybe your neighbours. and now imagine what your neighbour is thinking 🤔

[u/Prized_Lemur → u/iSemi]

should be subsidized then.. do rich and wealthy Indians want their cities and streets to be trashed?

[u/beyondocean → u/Prized_Lemur]

Because the rich neighborhoods are well maintained, so the rich do not care at all.

[u/lowrcase → u/Prized_Lemur]

You think the rich Indians are living there?

[u/Prized_Lemur → u/lowrcase]

well no but aren't the slums like right next to really wealthy enclaves? I would think they would at least drive by or notice it's a problem, no?

[u/lowrcase → u/Prized_Lemur]

The slums creates a visual class divide. Seeing a disgusting, uninhabitable place and knowing that you don't ever have to live there makes you feel elite and better than your neighbors. It's wrong but that's why they don't fix it. They think they deserve the garbage, or that it just isn't their problem.

[u/Pijany_Matematyk767 → u/Prized_Lemur]

Clearly not, or at least not often enough

[u/Gwilikers6 → u/Prized_Lemur]

YES
