As a Portlander, third generation, I regularly pick up trash downtown or anywhere. The trash is part of the general deterioration of values and standards. This is due to ignorance and people think: “Society doesn’t care about me, and I am not a part of it. So i don’t care about society.” So many people have been left behind economically and they are rightfully angry. Trash is a result, part of our“I don’t care, I don’t have to care.” Culture.
