I'm not sure of the specifics you refer to, but it sounds a bit like walled-garden-thinking that there's a central authority that can enforce rules.

We have a similar saying in my family, but it translates into break one generation at a time, meaning you allow the kids to be lazy while the parents work themselves to death. It is usually used as a dig when someone younger is lazy.
