More on Clinton Collins' column

Mr. Collins needs to know that this trash problem isn’t just concentrated in northeast Minneapolis. It’s all over the city, and it’s getting worse. When I first moved here, Minneapolis was described as “the most European city in the U.S.” In the quarter century I’ve lived here, I’ve seen that description deteriorate, as the city grows into a collection of neighborhood landfills, as Mr. Collins describes them. I’ve even seen the air quality deteriorate to the point where I’m not certain how much longer I can survive here.
