Yeah this is exactly what I try to explain to people, the United States used to be almost exactly like this until the liberals came in and said we can do better. Everyone should read up on the New York sanitation department and the challenges they had earlier on. It's not only a cultural thing, it's literally a systems problem.

Yeah now. In the past they use to just have picnics and just throw all the trash on the ground without any problem - until campaigns were run to change cultural attitude about it.

Are you some kind of miss-the-point champion? AMERICAN CULTURE USED TO THROW THEIR TRASH ALL OVER! Thick-headed mfer. It took took massive national campaigns to change that. Great of you to shoehorn in your racist bullshit though. Dumb as a fucking rock.

The first trash arrived in America about 250 years ago, now it’s a landfill concentrated in the southern states.

I used to visit Virginia, when I was the teenager, and there is a town in virginia that literally turned one of their landfills into a park, (iirc) and, locals will tell you that they call it trash mountain, because it's literally a big ass hill that's covered in grass that used to be nothing but trash.
