Punishment is now unfashionable....because it creates moral distinctions among men, which, to the democratic mind, are odious. We prefer a meaningless collective guilt to a meaningful individual responsibility.
Thomas Szasz American Psychologist Born 1920
Come walk the road we travel
Until your morals unravel
I refuse to take the blame for you
Be accountable for what you choose to do
Shining trophies on the shelf
Earned in competition by myself
You didn't run that race for me
And neither did society
Lawless thug behind the bars
Wearing proudly years of scars
Is his evil notoriety
The fault of all society?
