Im not saying that its all well in western world but we got spoiled and its hard to take a step back.
People want everything at once and blame the system when thrown out of their homes.
People vote for politicians who are ready to give away everything on silver platter for a chair in parliament,then whine few years later about deficit and depression.
Now you have politician who tights the budget and well... it a riot.
OK its system to blame as representative of its people.
Just like spoiled 6 year old kids that go nuts in a shopping mall when mom doesn't buy the toy...

well....somthing like that....lol
You're right what you say
