I struggle when people say the solution is more government. I'm not a right winger, but I also see the bureaucratic ineptitude when I go to the DMV and see a long line just waiting to be told they don't have the right I.D. for the service they need. If people had compassion, morality, and *gasp* a little less independence in their culture, America would have less social problems
Not everyone has these supports. Same as it’s ever been and as it will always be. Government should step in to spread the safety net for the less fortunate.
That's a very narrow-minded view and it's contrary to how human society functioned throughout all of history, up through the late 1800s.
I'm not disagreeing that some people don't have the supports and need the help. I'm saying that it's not solely the government's responsibility or purview.
