They might assume federal-controlled healthcare is a good idea not thinking that it's more power for big government and less for the individual. I don't know....why don't we ask a number of Asian-Americans why they support a socialist like Obama. It would be interesting to hear them, especially the business people, justify voting for someone who would like to bankrupt them.
OR maybe they just can’t get their mind around being just imposable to get Pregnant during a RAPE..
Or that it isn’t really an absolute imperative, for both teams openly PRAY IN PUBLIC to legitimize a High School game..
Or maybe they are just all G_DLESS heathens.. jus sayin’
Where have I gone so wrong?
In failing to reflect that, if morality goes by the wayside, the economy follows it into the trash. For instance, when men fool around instead of marrying the mothers of their children—the children do less well at school or work. When the statistics are controlled for variables like class, race, age, and so on, the fathers themselves don't prosper as well economically as married men. They are more likely to become drunks, crooks, or drug users, and their lives are shorter. The children of "non-family" men are vastly more likely to become criminals than children who grow up in a household of both their natural parents. These micro-economic disasters can build up to a macro-economic disaster.
(Ironically, the recent book, Coming Apart, by Charles Murray, the author of the excerpted article, documents the morality-prosperity connection in brilliant detail.)
It's also true that moral attitudes in matters of sexuality and family, if they include lack of commitment, exploitation, cheating, and so on, spread directly into business behavior, which is fatal to an economy—since any economy runs on investment and trust.
Fiscal conservatives who are social "liberals" are short-sighted—in effect voting against the future economy in favor of present sexual or drug indulgence. It's not worth the hangover we will all suffer.
