I don't see how that implies a lack of self control, and I'm not sure what the government has to do with it.

I guess I read 'positive' as 'be nice.' What's a positive way to deal with a world that you hate (hypothetically)? Why should anyone do anything positive, why can't they lash out as they see fit? Why should someone live by rules that others created without their consent, and then be 'positive' about it?
Maybe society has failed. Maybe we're not living how we're supposed to be living.
