I miss a great deal of what you miss. But the welfare state was created by men for the most part. Maybe women influenced them but men did it. I think either sex running the country is not good. Men and women equally can run this country. Blaming women for a group of looney toons who are mostly driven by socialists and revolutionaries does not bring people to your opinion. I do believe we all miss what you miss, I do, but the women who have radicalized education all have men involved too.

Without doubt men made most of the changes. But when you look at the overwhelming gender gap of the women who vote to elect and support these men, they never could have been elected if women had never gotten the vote. I don't advocate repealing women's suffrage, but the facts speak for themselves.

Men voting alone would never have elected the men who feminized schools, provided more rights for criminals than victims, fought to abolish the death penalty, scorn performance-based rewards in deference to mere self-esteem or provided huge unearned and unmerited financial giveaways without demanding personal responsibility. I'm trying not to come off as "hating women", but I really feel that women don't have the basic "meanness" to rule on merit alone without offsetting that by helping the weak, stupid and careless, and thereby giving away the farm.

I thought the article bore that out. Women mean well, but rule too soft. That softness, lacking in men, is why men who rule need a women's influence to temper their callousness. God knows men would be brutal tyrants without the softening influence of compassionate women. But when women rule, you get automatic advancement in school and soccer games where no-one keeps score. I don't think those are improvements over the ole days.

Women supplied the vote margin for the Dem men who built the welfare state.
