“how far lower class whites have fallen”
This is exactly what big government involvement creates. If you want more of something set up a society that subsidizes what you want. More homes, develop a tax policy that rewards home ownership. Want more babies subsidize having more babies. It works every time. You want less of something tax it or cut off subsidies.
“It used to be called illegitimacy. Now it is the new normal. After steadily rising for five decades, the share of children born to unmarried women has crossed a threshold: more than half of births to American women under 30 occur outside marriage.”
Communist dreams of the 1950s for America have become reality. The state is replacing the family.
I was driving to work the other day and stopped at a red light. There was a sign there that caught my eye. It said: “$4000 tax return - only one child”, then had a phone number.
At first I thought “what a silly sign”..it didn’t make sense to me - seemed to be lacking info. As I kept driving to work I couldn’t help but keep thinking about it - kind of like a riddle. Finally I thought I had it figued out. The stoplight I was at was in a borderline neighborhood (not a place to go for a walk), and the “only one child” likely referred to the tax service being able to get Moms big $$ without their having to have 4 or 5 kids. I think the “out of wedlock” part was inferred.
Times sure have changed from when I was a youngster and an out of wedlock pregnancy was a scandal in our small town.
The fact is, liberals hate the idea of marriage, unless it’s between two gay people.
Anything that forwards the trend of destruction of morality or christian faith or of the norms of a conservative society, the liberals are all for it.
No rend just more people more whores.

Or at least by GM or Planned Parenthood.
Old Chinese saying: A man is a like a key and a woman is like a lock. A key that can open any lock is a very good key but a lock that can be opened by any key is a worthless lock.
