No the world hasn't gone mad it is just a repercussion to stupid people breeding. Parents that don't care for the child and raise them correctly end up with offspring that think the world owes them something, and they should get paid for doing nothing, and when this don't happen they turn into drains on our society in almost every way possible, and with more and more people coming into the world the problem is bound to propagate its self.
