The headline is “Single Moms are Making Us Broke.”

Wrong. Single moms AND FATHERS are making us, the taxpayers, broke.

And “Single motherhood up blah blah blah percent?” Why not “Single fatherhood” up the exact same percentage?

There is no single motherhood without single fatherhood.

And the progressive, socialist slide you’re on about? I’m not enjoying it at all. But I don’t make the fundamental logic error of blaming it exclusively on women.

Every poor kid of a single mom has a single dad. There’s plenty of blame to go around.

"And 'Single motherhood up blah blah blah percent?' Why not 'Single fatherhood' up the exact same percentage?"

Single fatherhood is rare, most of the illegitimate children seldom or never see their fathers. They're reared by single mothers. That's not fatherhood, but it is the result of decades of propaganda and laws promoting and coercing single motherhood.

"There is no single motherhood without single fatherhood."

Yes, there is. We frequently see women, each with kids from several fathers. Not so with the many young men who are only good for a night's fun.

..."you're on about?" Are you from East London in England? In your first comment, you wrote, "But the point of this article is STOP FATHERING CHILDREN. And if you do and the state (i.e., ME) ends up supporting them, you’re the farthest thing from a king — you’re a bum."

...a reminder of who you were blaming. On the money issue, two recent products of broken, high-income families cost quite a bit (Lanza and Holmes). But there aren't many true private sector producers remaining anyway. With most who call themselves taxpayers, they receive incomes derived from government debt.

"Every poor kid of a single mom has a single dad."

Young men who don't stay with their children until adulthood, at least, aren't single dads or dads at all. Young men were taught to be more traditional during decades of feminist indoctrination for girls (indoctrination mostly aimed at promiscuity).

Many laws were passed decades ago to stop working class men from making women pregnant outside of marriage. At the same time, men were rejected for jobs in many companies for the sake of feminism. We've tried the feminist model for a long time, and we see how it has worked. Our forefathers knew better, and our leadership is too vain to acknowledge that. Western culture is morally bankrupt.

We don't need more institutionalized social pathologies (e.g., sexual confusion). We need new leadership in business, academia and politics, and we'll get new leadership at the other end of the default process.
