⚡️🇫🇷 🚮 While the United States and China are competing in the field of AI, France is innovating in its own way:

🤡 Several municipalities in France are charging citizens for waste disposal. Each resident is assigned a badge, and all waste they throw away throughout the year is tracked and weighed. The badge is linked to the individual's tax notice. To open the trash bin, residents must scan their badge, after which the machine weights the waste and adds a count of +1. At the end of the year, a bill will be sent to the residents. #Nostrfr

Another take: In theory, dynamic pricing so you only pay for what you use (throw away) isn’t the worst idea. The implementation is shit, but pay to play is legit. Like a toll-road for trash?

Trash disposal is already payed by the city taxes.

So now, they pay for a service which is already been payed by taxes.
