Most of the world doesn't have suburbs in the way you imagine them. it's mostly a North American thing, as we're the only ones with the wealth to make such a thing possible and the population to make it necessary.

Our beautiful suburbs are emblematic of a strong and vibrant middle class.

That doesn't exist in most places. A strong middle class is the result of well-ordered liberty. That includes both the freedom to do what you want with your life and also the rule of law including swift and certain punishment based on just prosecution.


"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
