This makes zero sense what so ever.
The government is a unique institution that has zero responsibility for history that it's current members have no control over. Second, what you're referring to wasn't just beliefs and such of government but of the nation in general terms. What you're really saying is that people who were not involved in said conflicts need to somehow make up for others mistakes. Imagine if somebody asked you to pay for somebody else's mortgage. Would you think that is fair? No. (just a random example; find one that's relatable to you).
As for everybody else who quoted except for chrome (I think it was), thanks for quoting only the part of the post you read.
