Why the young people today are totally screwed up.

Now, what will bring these young people out of this fear? It's simple, they need more skills. Look at the older generations. They had less fear, and they were stronger, and more confident. They were achievers. They could adapt. All that because they had numerous skills. They were creators. That gave them confidence. They could make things. They could carve, they could craft, they didn't need large corporations for many of their goods.

Halloween's coming up? Oh, mom would sew her kids costumes. Family's hunger? Mom would make them a dinner. Maybe dad would slaughter the chicken that they raised. Or they'd eat the eggs from that chicken for breakfast. They grew much of their own food. Herbs? Lettuce? Tomatoes? Fruit? Are you hungry? No need to go to the grocery store, you had land from which you could get fresh fruit, and vegetables.

Do you need a new table? Cut down some trees, and make it yourself. My grandfather used to make furniture. He wasn't even a carpenter. Same with my dad. And if there was a problem with the pipes, they didn't call the plumber first thing. They used their tools to fix the problem. See, the old timers, had skills. They had survival skills. They'd go hunting, and fish, and forage. They knew about farming, and gardening. Their wives could cook, clean, sew, and make clothes. Fuck, some of them could spin, and weave to literally make clothes from scratch.

If they wanted something that someone else had, they might not go to the store. Instead they traded. They bartered. They had things they made that they could trade, or if need be, they'd have a supply of precious metals to get more luxurious, or expensive items. They weren't users of credit cards, and debit cards, which can be cancelled by someone you don't even know.

But these breeds of people that could survive on their own, and live without government cheese, are going extinct because of the one-size-fits-all education system. Today, the young people have never even seen the inside of the forest. They've never lived outside of cities. They don't know how to cook. They don't know how to do repairs. They don't know how to defend themselves. They can barely do their taxes. They have one skill, and for everything else, they need to hire someone. Everyone is dependent on each other, and if one of them collapses, they all feel it. But these young people are subconsciously carrying fear in their heads.

Look at how they react to anything slightly negative. They go absolutely apeshit. Global warming, they think it's the end of the world. Donald Trump, they think is going to kill everyone that isn't wearing a MAGA hat. Any little thing upsets them because in the backs of their minds they know they can't survive if one thing in their world is broken. They can't survive without help.

And it gets worse because these people come from small families. And the one sibling that they have, they aren't close with them. Mom, and dad need to make appointments to visit them. They don't know anything about their neighbors. Everyone but a few people are a strangers. They are bad at teamwork, and working together, and putting aside their differences.

So, if shit hits the fan, they need other people, but they don't know anyone that wants to help them. This is the opposite of the older generations, who grew up in big families, and knew all their neighbors, and made connections with people in church, and all the people on their street.

Today's youngsters are weird, and isolated. They can't even make conversation. They don't like silence, or pauses. If that happens, they have to take out their phone, and distract themselves, or look for answers from a total stranger online. Remember when dads used to teach their kids how to fight? How to box?

Now, these dads aren't even around, and if they are, they're glued to the television to escape reality. And the boys, and girls aren't even taught how to throw a punch. They don't know how to save themselves. They follow a plan that has been made by an incompetent government. These young people are lost, and scared. They'll attach themselves to any fool that gives them a bit of comfort.

They're living in fear because they don't have family, community, and above all skills. Today's young people are one-skillrf. They are not creators. They're not makers. They are consumers. And if they do create, they create shit that doesn't help them survive. They can paint, and sing, and dance, and write about how America sucks, but can they make a trap, and catch an animal? Can they slaughter, and skin, and prepare that animal, properly?

They can't. The young people don't have survival skills. They have one soft-skill that they learned from a college, and nothing more. And this is the problem with kids today, they have one city skill, and when the demand for that gets crushed, they lose big. They have nothing else. But we can change this. We can strengthen the youth, our children, by having them learn numerous skills -- important skills that keep them alive, and comfortable without big government, or big corporations.

Teach your boys, and girls how to hunt, box, wrestle, cook, garden, sew, saw, and do all the things that people that grew up in the past knew. Teach them to get their hands dirty. Teach them how to build, make, create, and survive.

The short answer is they are living in fear. And when you live in fear, you make stupid, irrational decisions. But the question is, why are they living in fear? Young people live in fear because they are single-skilled. Meaning, they have one skill that can support them, and that's everything they got. If their way of earning money is threatened, they'll do anything to protect that. If their way of earning money is killed, they're out on the street, and homeless. We live in a one-skill society. Young men, and women can do one thing well, and everything else, they're okay, or totally mediocre. Now, what will bring these young people out of this fear? It's simple, they need more skills.
