We should be able to have both.
Government that smooths out the bumps. Provides some 'smoothing' to society so it doesn't crater and fall apart.
While also holding people accountable and criminally charging corporate executives.
It does seem like there is some reductionism to just crying 'nanny', since the same people that dislike the 'nanny' state also complain when the 'nanny' wants to hold people accountable, since they should be free to cheat. Yelling 'Freedom' anytime the state steps in.
You can't have both, complain when the state is a 'nanny' and helping, and then complain when the state disciplines people, the 'nanny' when stopping the child from doing things that will hurt itself.
