litter. my god, we’re doomed.
I guess they never saw the National Mall after Obama's immaculation.

I was in Hercegovina during the Balkan wars. In the mornings, the rugs would go out on balconies to be beaten, and the housewives would take their brooms, and sweep the streets in front of their houses, even the unpaved ones.
In my small town TX neighborhood, there are a lot of older generation folks whose families originally came from Mexico. In the mornings, you will see them, broom in hand, sweeping the street, and along the curbs in front of their homes.
I pick up Whataburger, fast food trash, beer cans, etc tossed from cars, and occasionally leaf blower along the curb, but never sweep with a broom.
I have come to the conclusion that a lot of Americans are slobs, and thoughtless litterers.
When people in a war zone, and 80+ year old Mexican ladies are more dedicated to keeping things nice in their neighborhoods than younger healthier Americans, I question how/why we are so disinterested in keeping our neighborhoods tidied up.
I’m planning on visiting 5 or 6 parks in Utah and California beginning on 1/23. As long as they don’t block off entrance to parks I’m sure I’ll get by. I would think the rangers checking my pass at the entrances are considered essential.
