San Francisco's Department of Public Works wants to replace 3,000 existing green trash cans with bigger and better-looking ones. The prototype being considered would cost taxpayers about $20,000 per can as of now.

If they make the cans big enough, they can solve the homelessness and housing crises.

Don't you worry eventually they demand mandatory solar panels on those and tax the shit out of it so that we are back to tent city.

Well I am sure the trash cans are so mesmerizing that it would distract from the shit, needles, junkies and breaking down infrastructure.

If that's the case its actually a cheaper alternative.
