- pclmulqdq 2y agoI'm referring to much of the Western world prior to 1950, and you see this behavior in the middle east today (obviously, they disagree with you about "the right thing"). This is usually enforced socially, by communities and churches. The social safety net that governments provide today used to be a function of community charities and churches. Even modern healthcare has an analogue here.
