I guess where my brain gets stuck is that it seems litter is treated as someone else's problem to solve. Litter pickup is a service that we either have to pay for or cleaning it is used as punishment. In my mind that is wrong. It seems that a better solution would be to make litter pickup a matter of pride in the community. I guess I have a soft spot for the value of common areas.

Same here. I've hauled most crap out of the backwoods than I care to remember.
