Cumulative Record. Chapter 32: Why Are the Behavioral Sciences Not More Effective. Quote 25

Governments still hold the individual responsible and are said to be best if they govern least, because a person is then free to behave well because of inner virtues. All this continues to divert attention from the task of building a social environment in which people behave well with respect to each other, acquire effective repertoires, produce the goods they need, and enjoy life. It obscures the fact that the problem is to design better cultures—not better people. (p. 473)
