> There's probably a lot of things that are formally legal but corrosive to society. Plus the process of corruption is slow and creeping. A generation doesn't know whats it like growing up a generation or two before, so the current state of affairs is taken for granted. At some point, the idea of a high-trust society where people don't need to lock their doors and children can just roam the neighbourhood freely becomes a faint memory and unreal utopia. Starting a family in their twenties, the prospect of home ownership, and being able to do so on a single income has already become unimaginable.
