>>Why have the government picking up after you ... :-)
Ah.. exactomundo Star Traveler... you beat me to it...
"Pack it in, Pack it out" some folks were taught to do that... long before the Colorado Springs City Council put it on a sign.
Which begs the question, WHY were some folks NOT taught to do that; and taught instead that they should rely upon government employees to pick up after them and do what good Americans should have been doing in the first place? Hmmmm...
If you can carry it in then carry it out was always the philosophy we had hiking and camping in the Colorado mountains back in the ‘60s and ‘70s.
Maybe it is time to expect people to be responsible for their own messes again?
