I mean, the opposite side of this is who wants to scrub a public restroom clean 3x a day for $8.25/hour?
Sounds like you’re arguing they need to pay civic workers more, which I think most all of us here would agree with.
I just said to my wife the other day after driving 4 hours home. I had to go but stopped at multiple gas stations, and the only one that had a public bathroom was out of order. I told her I don’t think it should be illegal to piss outside if that’s the only option you have.
If it’s illegal to piss outside, and there is no bathroom… what about pissing inside…?
Or like some kids would do in our garage: get a bottle, piss into it, leave it in the trash.

A bit unrelated but I remember a drunk conversation with someone working in a had station in Geneva.
The sociological aspect of the gas station is fascinating, within the same minute you can interact with a homeless coming to use the toilet and a guy coming to refill his Lamborghini.
This is just another very intentional facet of the War on the Poor.
Make it impossible to find a public restroom, criminalize outdoor relief, oh look- another crime to charge homeless or poor people with.
In Taiwanese cities you have public bathrooms within a radius of a 10 minutes walk, and they are as clean as hotel bathrooms, and for free. People in Taiwan leave bathrooms clean as they found it, and there is no vandalism in Taiwan. It works if the society is healthy, teenagers and adults of all social classes following common sense of being nice to others and keeping things intact.
ikr, it’s awesome. you live in Taiwan?
