By the way, how do you legislate people appreciating what they work for, dealing with and accepting perceived unfairness (no more civil litigation), not living in the past (outlaw history classes and speaking about anything that happened before 1964), require all persons to make their own decisions and take responsibility for their actions (outlaw guidance counselors, parenting, peer pressure, social pressure)

By eliminating entitlements.

I have the feeling you are not going to say yes or no to all of the above...As I said before...No easy answers...I don't know if anyone has the courage or authority to implement the objective you specified but I do appreciate the goal... Just a bit difficult with 250M people, 538 congressman, 50 governors, etc, and two very idealogically opposed political parties...
