Government rarely solution to US's problems

Citizen's lack of faith, ethics halts progress

 Faith and ethics have been thrown on the back burner in exchange for the idols being pushed by, ironically, corporations and entities government has sought to regulate. This loss of cultural faith has been devastating to progress. The issue lies in the failure of the audience to turn away. "Jersey Shore" doesn't have millions of viewers forced at gunpoint to watch, but something about men hitting women and "smushing" draws us back.

The public safety situation and the response to Five Points violence is going to kill economic productivity. But once again, Big Government says the safety problem and prioritization of policing is the fault of the patrons, and thus, more protection and regulations are needed for the business conducted within.

When government steps in, its inefficient nature can't tailor the solution to provide the best benefit for all parties involved. The solution to our problems lies in addressing all possible causes, including social causes. By relying on others to solve problems, we create a vicious cycle of laziness that leaves us without motivation.
