why it should be the responsibility of the resident on the ground of health. As for those who argue that the

government

ought to be responsible for waste removal, they feel

this

way because residents pay huge taxes. Authorities deduct a certain amount of money from their earnings for administering good governance, which includes but not limited to a neat and tidy

environment

for people to dwell in harmony.

Such

statutory deduction is more than enough for the

government

to procure vans and pay personnel for cleaning the streets and make the area look good. The New York Times,

for instance

, reported that in 2018, an approximate sum total of 3 trillion dollars was withdrawn from employees as a chargeable tax on income. It is,

annually received significant finance for taxpayers to run a beautiful
