It's like they see all this shit burning down around them.and thi k nothing of the next generation. The 50s were good, the 60s changed American values and we are seeing the trickle down effects of that decay that took place during the 60s revolution. It's been said that sexual immorality effects the 3rd generation and we are apparently the result of that revolution. We are going to suffer for it.
Well I totally agree that America peaked in the early 60s. If you've never read "Coming Apart" by Charles Murray, it's interesting, as are a lot of the sources he cites. The subtitle, something about White America, is misleading in the sense that it makes one think the book is about the breakdown of white America in particular. Rather, he analyzes white America independently so that he's not spending the whole time analyzing the disparity between whites and blacks. Basically the same problems -- single motherhood/lower marriage rates/more divorce, drug use, working less, and the breakdown of community -- happen to both communities.
