- fwungy 3y agoLive in reality. Enforce rules. Recognize that some people aren't up to the responsibility level of living certain places and deal with them accordingly, i.e. at a certain level of criminal history you're on timeout or banished. Yeah, that isn't "nice", and if you want the job of rehabilitating the repeat offender because "there's good in everyone", go for it! But a society must be a place where children can be raised safely and successfully, otherwise there is no society left. Public safety is a foundation of this. Life sometimes brings us trolley problems where hard decisions must be made. Liberalism is a denial of this, which makes it attractive, but it always ends up being paid for with larger breakdowns as hard decisions aren't made.
