Well, the normal parent then can have the last word!
Government and the "new morality" are the enablers.
Parents are just the clueless victims.
Being old fashioned, I always tried to be able to pass on something to my kids. No More.
Now, I am seriously considering a reverse mortgage. If I had "retired kids" (which I don't) I would get a reverse mortgage tomorrow. And the losers and their string of bastards on welfare can figure out how to find a job and survive at age 40, with no work experience.
What is the trigger for national economic collapse? 50% of the annual budget to pay the interest on deficit spending and the national debt?
75%?
90%?
Who can bail out a failed USA? The UN?
....wait...
Ask 1000 Obama "supporters" if they understand, and can explain how deficit spending and servicing the national debt "works."
I would bet a substantial amount that NOT A SINGLE ONE would know, or care, or grasp the implications of their ignorance!
