True enough, DD, However (individual) self responsibility - which is the bedrock of a stable society - is long out of fashion in America with the introduction of the "Nanny" or "Welfare State" that was created by Democrat President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1932.

Since then, both Democrat and Republican administrations have - via law - created and funded an ever expanding BLOB MONSTROSITY - the "administrative state" - run and ruled by hordes of un-elected bureaucrats - who in the name of "doing good" have morphed into a tyrannical body intent on controlling and governing by endless unconstitutional edicts, rules, and regulations blanketing virtually EVERY facet of life and "living" - with virtually NO "oversight" by ELECTED members of the Congress, nor the Executive branch of (our) federal government - And PROTECTED by the Judicial branch for almost 100 years up until the "Chevron" Supreme Court decision that (hopefully) restores Constitutional authority rather than bureaucratic authority over the sovereign American people.

But, again, until the reconstruction of the 'nuclear family' and the resolve by mothers and fathers to TEACH self responsibility to their children, the same dependence on "the state"

and rampant irresponsibly of individuals that someone else OWES them whatever they 'feel' they need or want THROUGHOUT their lives will continue to destroy the "Fragile Experiment with Freedom" Ben Franklin spoke of.
