“Really, what it the “governments role” in an irresponsible society?”
Well, so far, the government seems to be actively promoting irresponsibility with ever increasing social welfare programs that reward sloth and illegitimacy, and government dependency.
You get the society that you expect. Lower expectations of citizen behavior and that’s exactly what you’ll get.
Of course, the hard working, tax paying, responsible ones end up paying the bills. Who sticks up for THEM?
