Great pic’s.
From the places I’ve been to and the pictures I’ve seen (admittedly pic’s are inherently biased toward their goal), western Europe is generally clean and neat. The US with its tradition of individualism and property rights has allowed much of its beautiful landscape to intermittently resemble a dump.
While full-on socialism fails miserably and I dislike top-down rules and regulations, there is no doubt many folks need “guidance” as to the state of their property.
