I share your frustration, but to play devil's advocate, wouldn't it be nice if, as a society, we were capable of creating systems that work for people as they ARE, not as they "should" be? Because bearing in mind that even in the strictest religious or secular regimes, people habitually don't do what they "should" - even to the extent of being willing to die for it - I think it's really about time we made systems that work for people rather than impractical ones that cannot cope with reality, but which then allow us all to play at blaming "them" for all our woes. Unless, of course, that small sense of superiority we all feel when we read a story like this provides a bigger species-wide payoff than actually having a society that works smoothly....?
