You know this isn't the HOA, right?
Yes, all the civilized people in the neighborhood are outraged by this crap. But how outraged? You gotta stand up and be counted!!! Go to a meeting. Fill out a grievence. Rally support. Do something! The nothing you are doing is getting the results you see. Hell, less than 50 people went to the HOA's annual meeting. Only 50% pay their assessments.
I agree with you. You just simply must do more to see more.
