Murray understands that the debilitating shifts of poorer people away from marriage and religion are culturally induced and that the prescriptions to reverse them must be cultural as well. Among those fixes, as he said in a recent article in the paper of record.The second, from Bill Quick:
Our society chooses to pay for bastards and wonders why the number of bastards increases. Our society refuses to support poor families with married fathers in residence, and wonders why the number of single mothers increases. Our society pays for single motherhood, and wonders why we get it. Our society gives stipends to unemployed and/or homeless males, and wonders why we get more and more of them.The thrid, from the Huffington Post:
Two new studies cited by The Wall Street Journal find that when jobless Americans exhaust their unemployment benefits, they turn to Social Security disability benefits to survive.It's been my experience, if you want something, subsidize it. Looking at our entitlement economy, it's probably a good idea if we cut a bunch of those bastards off at the knees, cut out a bunch of stuff and reduce our entitlement budget by about half or better.
How about this? Have the government tell people that if you're not military disabled and you're not 65 years old, your check will be cut off in 90 days. No more checks, no more food stamps, no more anything. Root, hog, or die. It's not the government's fault if you can't take care of your bastard children.
That's PawPaw's plan for government solvency.

Oh, but you can't cut them off -- think of the children!! Arrrgh!
I am so FAR beyond being held hostage by the images of multigenerational couch potatoes' children...
I don't know about cutting them off, but I'd sure like to see amounts reduced to "you are not expected to live on this -- it's only an assist."
On the other hand, an experimental 1-year moratorium might be an interesting experiment.
"Root, hog, or die."
You'd better have your Zombie Carbine handy when that goes into effect, PawPaw. When it does, the inner city handout-dependent folks will look to loot, rob and rape their vengeance, and it will be kill or be killed.
Don't get me wrong, America is strong enough and well-armed enough to stand up to that sort of nonsense, but the repercussions afterwards will make the South African Truth Commission hassles look like a smiling padre giving confession over a full keg of beer, compared to the angst the Nation would go through afterwards. Think the post-civil War South on steroids.
Concur, plain and simple...

The looting and pillaging that is so easy to do in urban environments doesn't work so well in more rural areas.
Then too, Louisiana has already had some experience with large scale looting in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. It was much more common in the New Orleans area than the media officially reported.
And something else you didn't hear: quite a few goblins were shot by police and military snipers. If I know about it, I'm sure Pawpaw knows about even more of the details. It's one of those things that the MSM didn't really want to know, and the state and federal governments don't want to discuss.
Pawpaw for president! again!
