I think the correct response is to structure society so we don’t have so many lawless youths roaming the streets.

How do we do that? Government has become the parents of kids in cities... the government houses them, it feeds them... and it fails to punish them for their first 50 or so major crimes. Government tells them that religion is bad, it tells them that capitalism is bad, it gives them gold stars for failing.

>>>Fathers will not be in the house with the welfare state being as it is. Why does a certain group of folks see having a child as a means of income as opposed to getting a job.<<<

Can’t any of the Great Society be rolled back? I’m all for letting parents be in charge of their kids. Is that such a minority viewpoint that it can’t win elections? Has anyone tried since Newt did welfare reform?

Sad and true. Obama has increased welfare to almost one trillion bucks a year. Since 1964 we have spent over 15 trillion on welfare. I recall when everyone worked in 1962-63 as I unloaded box cars in the hot VA sun with black men on summer construction jobs. I was the only white for a month.
