I don't know how to change this but it seems it's more and more acceptable to loudly proclaim opinions that are totally inconsistent. Talk to a cop who gets a super nice pension that's pretty much unaffordable for his community and he will tell you that he deserves his pension but everybody else who gets money from the government is just a freeloading parasite. Or people who get lifelong health care through the VA think socialized medicine is evil and unamerican.
