A Mayor of North Sydney NSW Australia found rubbish piled up beside the 
council bins, so he organised more pick ups.
The amount of rubbish beside the bins did not decrease!
So he doubled the number of bins.
The amount of rubbish increased!

He removed the bins. Quite a few locals were upset at this taking place.
There was vastly less rubbish at these places. People, including the 
locals, were much happier with this result.

I wish you luck with 'your' rubbish.

(His name was Ted Mack, refused the Mayor's 'free' car and driver 
preferring to drive his old car himself.
