I have made a list that organizes the general thoughts on the ethos of the argument. Notice that these are the most prevalent opinions among people, and I am not agreeing/disagreeing with any part/s of the list.
No, society has no role.
Drugs/Alcoholism
Bad life choices
Lack of personal responsibility
Lazy
Desire Sympathy
Yes, society has role.
Safer on streets than in neighborhoods
Society owes something to it’s individuals.
Abandonment
Lack of Government work programs
Profit driven commercialism (property goes to highest bidder)
We’re Apathetic
Amount of welfare received by famlies.
Situation is not their fault (abandoned my husband), so society should help
Implications
But what are the implications of this argument? Like any serious argument, a negative peace develops. When one side is winning out, the losing side does everything in it's power to win. Once it does, the roles are reversed. This creates a win/lose cycle that is enveloping to anyone involved.
