In the 1950s. We refused to listen to the fbi.

It all began when we turned our backs on God.

My father told me this was going to happen 25 years ago. I was 22 at the time and thought he was crazy.

Binkley said it best in Bloom County. The whole world has gone to hell in a handbasket since David Lee Roth left Van Halen.

These people represent such a small fraction of Americans that the number isn't even in significant digits. The media plays it because it's a free cast of entertaining characters.

It all started when schools stop using Horatio Alger books.

The idea of working hard and making good life decisions in order to move up from the lower class to the middle class is like showing Dracula the Cross.

LBJ had far more to do with creating the welfare state (and the current state of the African American community) than FDR by a mile.

The War on Poverty and the legislation that went along with it is probably one of the worst things outside of the civil war that has happened to this country.

Giving all morons a voice via the internet and social media. Used to, you would have to be educated and accomplished in order to get air time on television or something you believe printed into a magazine and newspaper. Today, uneducated pop culture heroes like Lebron and Kim K can influence millions of people without leaving their sofa.

To be completely honest it was the point that we started shipping in people for slavery. How many of todays problems would not be around today if we had never done this?

It went wrong when people stopped preaching togetherness under one nation and started preaching separatism.

.

I do agree this is only a small fraction. Most people want to live their lives and earn a living.
