Talking Trash Cans-Photographically

I recently found six Charlotte City owned Trash cans strewn behind several hummocky dirt mounds at Renaissance Park off of Tyvola. These can covers appeared to be serviceable. Every day I pass no less than six 3,500$ 'artistic' garbage cans that were put out last spring replacing the old style. This one is at 2120 Central Ave.
These two can covers are at the 3100 block of Central in front of a bus stop. Whatever the collective cost of this trash can schlock art seems to be worth it.
Two blocks up at 3300 Central Ave.
The same block across the street.
3600 Central Ave.
Another two blocks up and the rest of the way out Central we are back to the original less creatively cultivated Garbage cans.
The Charlotte Library is closing half of its branches due to a lack of funds. Imagine that.

But those are some dang fine mosaic garbage receptacles you got in trade for the loss of education. Guess it truly is stuff like this that constantly leads your blog to the political side. This sort of thing should piss people off, yet people continue to scurry around as though it weren't even going on.

Always good to read about real life idiocracy at work. Keep at it, we are listening.
