This is just bootstraps mentality and there is no fixing it. It is either a revolution or the government does it and shove it down the throat of whoever is complaining about it. If there is anything to consider is that most of the people who are against these things are thinking along partisan lines before anything else.

If you could imagine a world where the neoliberals feel it is necessary to make concessions like this as a last resort then a lot of the people who are against these things will fall in line. At the end of the day whether these people truly believe this shit or not may not be that relevant.
