13. I'm not sure the waste disposal fee is as good of an example as the fire department.

The wealthy have bigger houses that would presumably require more trucks and people to put it out, but I don't know that one would produce significantly more trash in a year based on income. In fact, if a wealthy person spends more time away from home (vacations, second homes, etc...) wouldn't they be more likely to produce less trash (at least at that residence) in a year than someone who can't afford to travel?
