thats one of the problems, most peoples "conscience" is dead! They do whatever they feel they want to, regardless of the consequences.
Everything is relative and some one else's problem.
Their is no personal accountability anymore. Look at the Cali insurance policies for rental cars. If the car I rented got hit, even if it was parked!, its my responsibility not the person's who hit it. You can't even drive a car up here unless its insured.
People want the gov't to do everything for them. And the gov't sets it up so that they can and have to do it for everyone, so that "they" have control. They make it so difficult to pay for everything that we need, insurances, licences, taxes, etc etc
