Annoyance: chewing gum on pavements

I get annoyed because a lot of the population (yourself excluded, I'm sure) are to lazy to find a waste bin to dispose of their chewed gum. Now, we all like a good chew on Extra, Tutti Frutti, Hubba Bubba or another famous gum; but does the chewer have to be so lazy as to spit it on the floor?I understand that when then flavour has gone from said piece of gum it becomes quite tasteless and all one wants to do is dispose of it and pop in a freshly full-flavoured piece. However, can we refrain from dropping it on the ground?Want to know why? Well, councils spend millions of pounds - yes, tax payers money - on resurfacing pavements, precincts, and roads. It's YOUR money! We can't have anything nice, as ignorant, lazy people cannot be arsed to find a waste bin! If councils had to spend less money on this then there would be more money to spend elsewhere... Like on education, for example.It's also disgusting; having stepped on freshly spat-out gum it's awful removing it from shoes - or other items on clothing. It's ruined some of mine in the past - and that's cost ME money.The white speckled pavements, which soon become black speckled pavements aren't by design, it's someone's gum that has been in their gob and them spat on the floor!Please, please please, start to find a bin to put your gum into. It's really not that much of a hardship.Just to say that there are other people who have similar values as me. There are even companies who specialise in this type of thing. I really like idea of gum bins but would people use them?http://gumdropltd.com/gumdrop-bin/[I did have a similar idea myself for gum bins/pads a number of years ago, but I'm not an entrepreneur so didn't do anything about it.]I hope we can come up with a solution to this issues as it really grinds my gears.
