    Yeah but if that was the case then good laws would have been introduced in the past.

      There were. Last example I can think of was Obamacare. It was far from true reform but it did help a lot of people. Before that politicians did introduce social security, a lot of civil rights, some environmental policies and so on. It’s not all the laws you have today were introduces 200 years ago. And if you mean gun laws specifically I simply think it wasn’t such a big issue back then. It’s almost like gun issue in US started growing as politics got taken over by corporations and the general decline began.
