You CAN fix stupid (mostly).
Bad, stupid and slothful behavior has negative consequences. It should. It's the universe giving a person feedback - "stop doing that". If lawmakers relieve us from this feedback, (bail out corporations, allow people to declare bankruptcy and walk away (personal bailouts), forgive mortgages and student loans, pay people on welfare…

Well put, I think this also speaks to the overwhelming lack of personal responsibility that these actions lead to in today’s society. Lets FIX stupid!
Larry, its amazing to me that hubris, greed, hunger for power rule our political leaders with no consequence.

All it takes is promising free benefits to humans, who are flawed enough to accept those benefits while ignoring their consciences. I’m not even sure many people today have the moral compass to guide their conscience, and that is a sad commentary on where we are in this great country.
Very well said!
Earn you way ….have pride in what ever you do.
