Yea and which areas and cities in this country are front runners for taxes, inflation and being unfriendly in general towards the middle class and families? Take a guess. The reason kids are happier when their parents are educated is because it helps their confidence and self esteem, and also ensures them that their role models in many cases know what they're talking about.

People all over this country cant take off their blinders and see that if families were able to be self sufficient and completely independent in living this country would overcome a threshold for the ages and secure our kids future a little more. Instead of making it less certain. People would be able to choose what they wanted to pursue in life a lot more leisurely, as well as have security not depending on revolving door jobs. You would see more craftsman, and people starting their own businesses again. Thinking homes in places like LA that have 2bdr and cost as much as they do, isn't reassuring to anyone on the face of the planet. Its very bleak for anyone who uses common sense. Most places aren't far behind LA in terms of that either. Talk about robbery and taking people for everything. People are suppose to have a child-like innocence. That isn't something that is suppose to go away. But for many it does. A child would reason how insane prices have become in many places here. Kids aren't consumed with money either. Adults in this country shame us all.

Thanks for the article.

Communism wants people to be judged based on their worth value. Our society wants the same thing. Forget that. How about people apply worth value to products and materials, and leave humans to human things.
