The urban decorum is a good and right thing. Such as the measures that discourage the abandonment of waste or that urge to pick up their dog droppings. But what if a package of measures is introduced such a provision prohibiting the homeless to rummage in the trash? This is the case of Madrid, where from now on who will be caught with their hands in the bins will have to pay a fine of € 750. A choice destined to be discussed, particularly because 13% of the Madrid population is at risk of poverty. It should be noted however, that the Spanish capital is not unique in Europe. In Budapest, for example, the Mayor’s decision to suspend the traditional bulky waste collection system has raised a hornet’s nest of controversy. According to the custom of “lomtalanitás” In fact, the homeless were allowed to take possession of furniture and miscellaneous items left on the street especially from citizens who wanted to get rid of it. With the advent of the new year, however, will be required please contact the municipal service collection.
