Hum... Just to point out but there's nothing socialist about this.
What doesn't mean it's not good. But words have meaning, and this one doesn't mean that.
socialism is when the government does stuff
if the government does a A WHOLE LOT of stuff:
it's communism
If the receptacles are provided by the City, and the collection of the garbage is paid for by taxes and done by the City, then it is kind of socialist.
"Socialism" does not mean "government doing stuff". (The one reply you'll find here claiming it is a joke.)
The name of "government doing stuff" is "government". It exists to do stuff.
I'm aware.
No.
Yeah OP didn't think when they wrote the headline. Super low-effort.
