I get it, some people only work enough to buy drugs. we need to stop all “for life” social programs. add in drug and alcohol testing. Stop feeding them. stop clothing them. stop section 8 housing.

My two sons work hard every day. As do my daughters. We raised them to realize the value.

One boy is an aerospace engineer. He works with his brain and skills. The other is a trucker. He adds his muscles to brain and skills.

He’s our family hero. He recently rolled a loaded dump truck and destroyed it. Mercifully he walked away just sore. He evaded a full school bus that pulled out in front of him.

Soon there won’t be a choice. Too many idle men? A nice little World War will take care of that.

Problem is when will we reach the point where not enough people want to work on farms or drive trucks?

“Honey, what do you want for dinner?” is at the root of it.

Bad parenting and taking fathers out results in people expecting to always get what they want and no boundaries.

They chase their wants and live for their wants, while their needs and responsibilities go lacking. They wind up on drugs. It gives them what they want, not what they need. That’s what they’ve been conditioned to chase in life. The only justice is the children stay around their mothers reminding them of their mistakes causing them regret and despair - the consequence of their “brave and stunning” empowerment. It is the destroyer of relationships, homes, towns, cities, nations and civilizations. From the Phoenicians to the Romans, thru to all the civilizations the “brave and stunning” empowerment of women has always destroyed what it touched.

We need more young men like your sons in America. Unfortunately, too many are not like them. I’m thinking of one 28 year old I know who has extreme anxiety and is afraid to leave his home. Instead he depends on government and family to take care of him, while he plays video games all day long. I know a 20 year old who is afraid to drive a car, but at least she has a job, but her mommy takes her to work every day. All disheartening.

Men are wired to build and create. Name a top female architect. Even people like fraudster Elizabeth Holmes (Theranos) had a good idea, but she needed male engineers, who showed it was not feasible technically.

I don’t agree with much of what he says, but Rollo Tomassi does have some points.
