12月16日(日)快晴
十和田で20年間町内会長を務め、最大の難問は側溝清掃とゴミの収集でした。住民はエゴをむき出しに行政にたかり、行政は税金の無駄遣いばかり。近年各地でゴミ収集の有料化が進んでいます。ゴミに限らず何でも民間でやって、役人は10分の1に減らせば良いというのが僕の持論。税が減り、個人消費が伸び、民間の活力が向上します。何よりも世の中が明るく、清潔になります。豪州の小さな政府はほとんどの業務を民間委託。ゴミ収集は夜明け前、元旦も休みません。徹底的な省力化の結果、会社や集合住宅のゴミ箱は巨大で、収集車もワンマン作業。車の前に伸びた2本のアームで巨大ゴミ箱を持ち上げ、上面の開口部に投入します。

Rubbish collecting
Sun. December 16 : fine
I was the president of the community union for 20 years in Towada. The biggest problem we had was how to clean the channel and to collect rubbish. Inhabitants egoistically sponged the public government and the public government always wasted tax. Recently, they charge for collecting rubbish everywhere in Japan. Not only about rubbish collecting but every public service must be entrusted to private companies and government staff must be reduced one tenth, that is my opinion. Tax would be reduced, individual consumption would rise, and private enterprises become economically powerful. Moreover, the world becomes brighter and cleaner. Small government in Australia commits most works to private enterprises. Rubbish trucks come before dawn and they never take any holiday even on New Year’s Day. As the result of thoroughgoing labor-saving the size of rubbish bins of companies and apartments have become huge and garbage truck is one-man operated. Two arms jutted out from the front of the truck pick up the huge rubbish bins and throw garbage into the hole of its back.
