We have become conditioned and addicted to the notion that all problems can be solved by the government when the truth is that the government is not particularly well suited to deal with a lot of issues that it has gotten involved in. I think a couple of good examples would be the department of energy and the department of education. If you do all of your childs homework the first couple of years that he/she has homework, he/she will be conditioned to believe things are as they should be and you may never be able to get him/her ( these two words, are close to being outlawed in the name of "equality" - how ludicrous) to take on the responsibility. In essence, you have become the maker and the child has become the taker and you have "taught" the child that this is acceptable. Very important for the child to learn to become the maker. Our society is also big on claiming to be a victim as an excuse for not being a productive citizen.
