tell that to the vulture capitalists who constantly privatize the profits and socialize the losses. i’ll bet that they will be offended if you call them “socialists”

no citizen would want to leave a peaceful country ran by responsible government/governance.

Agreed. But so far, all governments are run irresponsibly through theft, and violence. To further the analogy, most parenting is bad parenting as well. Just not as bad, or at the scale, as governments.
-
any large group of community will have theft and violence, if not amongst themselves then amongst other communities. the best we can do is reduce suffering through good governance, or opt out of large communities and live in a sustainable tribe, in peace.

Less excusing of bad ethics. And more discussions on how to build good ethics.
-
it’s not excusing bad ethics. it’s an opinion based on historical facts. human history is filled with violence from tribes, kingdoms/empires, to countries. you can have good governance in your tribe but it’s only a matter of time until another tribe tries to take your resources.
-
best way to build good ethics is to start with one’s self and grow it from there. hopefully from egocentric, to ethnocentric, to worldcentric.
-
Definitely agree with that. :-)
