In society, isn't it generally accepted that the person shitting on the floor be the one responsible for cleaning up after himself?
Anybody who has worked a service/retail job can tell you that the person literally shitting on the floor rarely is the one to clean it up.
And unfortunately that extends to the metaphor as well. Society would like to see those responsible for the mess to also be responsible for the cleanup. However society expects that everybody but the mess maker will be left cleaning up.
