I have read your story twice to be able to understand it a bit. Often problems are hidden because the promise can not be fulfilled. One keeps hoping against better knowledge and because one does not know how to solve it.

Well people admitting it didn't work and they were wrong is an important step. Then they can focus on finding something different to try. People (not just progressives) often have a problem with admitting they were wrong. It seems politicians rarely cancel a law as a "bad idea" instead they just keep adding to it as though that will fix it. They are far too fixated in protecting their "legacy" than determining if that "legacy" is actually working or not.
