The Karts In Front Of The Horse,

[Dee]

NOWADAYS,
Couples have "fiances" for several years and several kids to boot.

Youngsters live with their parents into their 40s.
Men and women, in their 20s and 30s are now referred to as kids, or children.

Women support the men.

Couples have "girls night out" and "guys night out" and wonder why their relationship isn't working.

Men/boys breed without desecration, and abandon the offspring.

Women/girls "give it up" and become "single moms" with no plan.

Then there's politicians,

They blatantly lie, and commit crimes,  but get re-elected, and are never prosecuted.

Voters continually elect liars, and criminals.

Voters are continually persecuted, and prosecuted by politicians.

Voters continually complain about the politicians they elected.

Mothers, and dads, are voters.

GRATIFICATION is the Kart.

Morality is the horse that "should be pulling" the kart.

Well said Dee!

Just watched a video from another post of a woman getting beat, in public, in front of her child, and no one lent a hand.  Rather just pulled out their cellphones to video it! SMH

The root cause of most issues today: Lack of morality and decency.

If we could only teach the youth today a common set of values, things would change for the better.

People don't understand that when Thomas Jefferson talked about separation of church and state, he explained the importance of having both, just not together.  Without the good morals taught in religion, there will be no good values when introducing law into government.  And a good government will not interfere with the teachings of good morals in religion.

Very true!

Almost all of todays problems can be because of some government plan. 

Government giving single women money and food stamps keeps them from getting married. 

Government signed the free trade agreements that stripped our factories gwith health care insurance provided that moved overseas.  Thus a health care problem and higher costs.

Government controls interstate transportation of utilities, gas, power, gasoline.  Government gives permits for drilling or doesn't give. 

Government cuts defense budgets and creates power vacuums in the world. 

Government closes or opens borders.

Government taxes you to death with permits, licenses, various taxes.  I know from working in the natural gas industry, gas is taxed at the well head, it is taxed when it is transported, it is taxed when it gets to your house.  Probably 50% of the cost of natural gas at your home is various taxes along the way.  Same with gasoline.  Feds, states, and locals all get a piece of the tax money. 

Government is the problem not the solution.

The only thing I'll add to that is feminism which is very closely intertwined with government. Along with government subsidizing single motherhood, Feminism created a generation of women who readily give bedroom fun to men with no strings attached where in the old days men had to wait to get married for bedroom fun. That changed the whole dynamic of relationships.

Government giving single women money and food stamps keeps them from getting married.


And Government giving Men a screwing in divorce's make most young men scared of marriage.

Government screws up  everything it controls.

Exactly, it's a double whammy.

Government gives massive financial incentives for women to get divorced. You can take half of your husband's net worth, a third of his gross salary in child support plus another percentage for alimony. More than 50% of all marriages end in divorce. 70% of divorces are initiated by women. What man in his right mind would play those odds in this day and age? I'll never get married again.

On top of that the government gives massive financial incentives for single motherhood. If the welfare a woman is getting isn't enough all she has to do is pop out more babies and the welfare check gets bigger.

NOWADAYS,
Couples have "fiances" for several years and several kids to boot.

Just for contrast.."Fiance" seldom carried for more than 2 years..and it meant "promise to wed".
  ... But then, it's probably easier to say than "shack job"!

Youngsters live with their parents into their 40s.

  I was on my own..earning my own way by 18...and most of my friends the same. It was expected.

  Men and women, in their 20s and 30s are now referred to as kids, or children.

  Not at all like those "kids' now serving in places like Afghanistan, Iraq etc.

Women support the men.

  Women wer "liberated', so they can support what amounts to a drone bee!

Couples have "girls night out" and "guys night out" and wonder why their relationship isn't working.

  Girls, Guys  nights out..is acting like they are single again..poison for a marriage.

Men/boys breed without desecration, and abandon the offspring.

  A "MAN" cares for his offspring.. a skunk breeds a willing female..then leaves..although he may be back the next time she's in heet!

Women/girls "give it up" and become "single moms" with no plan.

  Remember the old saying.."Why buy the cow, when you can get the milk for free?  THey sell outvtheir dignity..

Then there's politicians,

  "Politics"..Poly= many, "Tics".. tiny, bothersome vermin.

They blatantly lie, and commit crimes,  but get re-elected, and are never prosecuted.
  Pot dares noy call the stove black !

Voters continually elect liars, and criminals.

Some folks are full fleged, "gluttons for punishment"..

Voters are continually persecuted, and prosecuted by politicians.

  Only those which are responsible, decent and hard working. The freeloaders always get a pass !

Voters continually complain about the politicians they elected.

  With some, it's just verbal garbage...others are justified, depending upon their voting record.

Mothers, and dads, are voters.

GRATIFICATION is the Kart.

Morality is the horse that "should be pulling" the kart.

  Until the late 20th century it was...
