But we have an entire institution dedicated to solving these types of problems - the government. We don't want corporations trying to "make it work" or "contributing" - we want people to pay their taxes so the government can execute its mission.
- wolverine876 6y agoThe well-used argument that only government is responsible is, if you think about it for 30 seconds (try it - stop now and think about it) absurd, has never been true, is not how anything has gotten done, and never will be true. It's a meme, a cover story for not doing your part. It's our community, our society. It depends on each person, every one of us, every day.
