If recyclables are placed out on the curb, in a City issued recycling
bin, it's stealing from the City. Without aluminum and glass that fund
the recycling program, taxes make up the difference.

Nonsense. The municipality still receives the recyclables, when the
homeless turn it in for cash instead of the contracted trash collectors
turning it in for cash... if there was no monetary reimbursement neither the
homeless or the trash collectors would concern themselves with recylables.
I'd rather the homeless get the cash than some maffia run private
sanitation.
