Yup, and no-one is able to tell me why the complex and unfair system we

It isn't. In the main, people should pay for what they use. That
seems to me to be the fairest way.


So you'd be assessed on the number of bags of rubbish that had to be taken
away? How often you walked and wore out the pavement? ;-)


There would be no rubbish collection and no pavement. You need co-operation
for those and people willing to give their time freely for the benefit of
others.
