Why do people keep believing this?

Is it some sort of self-justification thing where there is this need to believe that circumstances are completely beyond anyone's ability to change or influence so whatever happens is unavoidable and as such it makes sitting there like a useless lump and taking it acceptable as opposed to looking for alternatives and solutions?

This is classic. Because there is no magic button to turn Alberta into the Garden of Eden theres no point even attempting to do anything to improve the situation at all. Just give up. Add some more taxes.
