Americans are lazy and do not take responsibility for their actions. Society does not hear the government complain about how civilians are not doing their jobs all day therefore the society should not complain about the government. As a country, people are steadily complaining about what is going on with societies government, but still, to this day, people do nothing about it. People definitely need to start taking more responsibility for their own problems.  In each community there are many problems and the people who live in it are responsible for the problems not the government. If the school in the neighborhood need some extra help, have a fundraiser and donate the profit. Yes, there is a shortage of jobs, but people have to keep trying. People need to be competitive and not give up because the first application was denied. All the other things in life that people enjoy doing should not be provided by the government. It is not their job to make life fun. The only job the government has is to keep the country stable. People want to do all their activities for free and some of them are but if everything were free in this country then the government will become broke and will not be able to provide for society. Americans need to straighten up and take some actions to make things better whether it is just in their community or even nation wide.
