Yeah, sure. Always sensible to blame the victim. He's easy to find. Hasn't it occurred to you that, before a cart is dumped, it first has to be *stolen* from a supermarket? So where are the suggestions for prosecuting the thieves (who are also the litterers)? But there you go. Pubs are the cause of binge drinking, soccer teams are the cause of hooliganism, schools are the cause of oikdom ... AIUI after a cart has been in the water, it cannot be reused (even if cleaned), for health reasons. That's why the supermarkets aren't that interested in getting them back.
