That has been the way of politics since ................... hell the beginning. The removal of responsibility for ones own actions under the pretense of the good for all is a ongoing thing. It gathers in votes but fails to solve the problem as the human condition can not be a pain free environment and efforts to create such a system will fail for the same reasons Marxism failed................ human nature. All humans can be afforded the same rights but never will they have the same abilities.
Human abilities and intelligence are not uniformly distributed resulting the uneven abilities to produce wealth, however wealth is defined. Secondly humans are very GREEDY and contrary to popular belief, they do not share well. We evolved from hunter / gathers and those who succeeded at getting food survived, those who failed perished. It is the human way.................. it is called, with humor in mind, the law of the jungle.
One assumes mankind will move forward but it is slow going. Technology and the inability of governments to control information has dramatically speeded up things but if history is a guide we are two or three generations from that time. Assuming we don't wipe out the planet first.
