Agreed. Your agency and the tragedy of the commons are in conflict.

I researched my feelings when not picking up some trash:

- disgust towards the thing

- disgust towards the person who („)lost(“) it

- grateful that the city will clean it for me

- doubt if I didn‘t delegate too much power to them.

Where I'm from we've got some kind of social aptitude that allows us to delegate and not convey too much power.

Too bad you guys don't have that.

Well, I can standup at the town hall meeting and yell at them. But not for cleaning. They‘re doing that very well. So well that you don‘t even feel much that some people are not brought up cleanly.
