Not sure if your comment was even meant for me? Or you clearly didn’t understand my meaning in what I wrote.
Every depression/recession has resulted in the next generation providing some new innovation of significant nature to propel the United States and eventually the world to better life.
The educational system we have now is so riddled with liberal/progressive over concerns...that next generation of dreamers, seekers, and innovators has been lost. Malaise, economic malaise is our destiny for the next generation or longer....
I nominate gay marrage and microaggressions.
The country never had to go up against this big of a regulatory wall with respect to innovating, in its history. That of course includes the doctrinarian shift in education, but also in society.
Totally agree. And for that we, we are all responsible.
Why “all”? Are we all liberals?
Have you forgotten that for decades...there was a ‘silent majority?’
Reagan was one of the last to really stand up and his departing speech left it in our hands. Very few understood what he even meant.
We were blind and in many ways stupidly naïve to what was happening to the next 3 generations of our own children.
“Are we all liberals”...ask the kids and you’ll get an answer you likely don’t want to hear.
failure to thrive...
I’ve asked quite a few kids, frankly, and I would say that the answer is “not”. All depends on their parents, of course.
HORSEHOCKEY! Doesn't even keep up with population growth. Zimbabwe here we come.
Then I would suggest your view is too narrow, circle of ‘friends’ a bit to tight?
If I were to ask my nephew and his friends, things would come back distinctly conservative sounding.
But, as my nephew put it to me this last election cycle, ‘who is it that gives him the loans for school, who is it that provides healthcare for him and his kids, who is it that gives, gives, gives...government.
I think I probably was not clear. I didn’t mean the kids I asked were liberal-sounding. The closer one gets to the cities, though, the more liberal-indoctrined people of all ages get.
Most of us will see the complete collapse of our present economic system.
SOLID job gains??? Then why was the number just 85,000 a month ago?
