Exactly. People seem to think that the government can just push some magic button and everything will be fine.
It doesn't work like that. If you want something you have to work for it. If you want to make money you have to sell products or services other people value and are willing to pay for.
But no, we've got an ever growing part of the population that thinks they don't have to work for things and that instead the government should steal from those who are productive and distribute the loot amongst those who don't produce anything. There's those who think they're not personally responsible for their own actions (including their mistakes) and expect the government to bail them out with other people's money when things go wrong.
