I agree with you but that’s like asking a crack addict to stop using crack if they want to lose their dependence on it.
The fundamental problem is that we now have a generation and half of voters who now believe they can vote themselves money and “free” services. Of course those in power who promised them this are only too eager to keep providing it since it keeps them in power. It just reinforces itself.
Benjamin Franklin once said “when people learn they can vote themselves money, the Republic will end” or something along those lines.
