OP's getting dunked on but he has a point: There are no consequences anymore for wrongdoing, unless it's one of a few very specific (often mortally violent) wrongdoings. So, the wrongdoers get a major advantage with no risk. To be honest, sometimes I feel like a sucker for not taking advantage. The whole spectrum from "criminal" to "mere asshole" goes unpunished. I could walk into a store in San Francisco today, right now, and walk out with an armful of goods, and nobody will lift a finger to stop me, including the police who will ignore it. You can start a business and just defraud people all day, and you're probably not going to face consequences. People are out there breaking into cars, running red lights, berating service employees, shitting on the sidewalks, harassing and doxxing people they disagree with, belligerence, bigotry, bullying and so on. Nobody does anything about it. The police can't be bothered, other public officials who could help just keep their heads down, bystanders look the other way and have no incentive to get involved.
You don't even need a good reason--just go out and do what you want, and nobody is going to stop you. It's like society hardly even functions anymore.
