That's where we disagree then.

I think people do have a responsibility and in a democratic state, government can only be as good as the people it governs.

I don’t entirely disagree with your point of view, I just question what the hell we pay taxes for if we (the people) are still responsible for all the societal issues. If I have to dedicate a portion of my day’s effort to chipping away at these things then why is the government entitled to a significant portion of my money? It doesn’t make sense to me.
