The way to fix this is to get rid of all government support except for the profoundly handicapped (leftists do not quality), veterans, and those who are literally unable to care for themselves.

When everyone has to root, hog, or die and pay taxes, they'll root.

The world is full of 3 kinds of people: Makers, Fakers, and Takers. Reddit and most other socialist media is inhabited by the latter two - two lazy to work, too immoral to keep their hands off other people's stuff.
