Benjamin Franklin liked to preach the benefits of the Yankee work ethic.
Now it seems that the good old Yankee work ethic has taken a back seat to the free or easy ride.
Nowadays with third wave feminism in full effect and people having less children in favor of their careers and uber-economic globalist materialistic pursuits, children are being raised without decent work ethics and a solid foundation to believe in themselves and become everything they were meant to be. They are being taught to believe that the system of socialism is what they need to be at their best. This premise is obviously failing them and the nation's economy increasingly more. If it wasn't then a large percentage of the populace would not be wanting more socialism. The free market economy would be functioning effectively and efficiently.
I will venture to say that productive and ambitious people with good work ethics, as exemplified by Franklin, are just as if not more important than education. What are people being educated for, to make a living from socialism and global financial markets? Computer engineering and social media which revolves around global corporatism?
So with the loss of the spirit of the hard working Yankee work ethic, this is where immigration comes into play. Many of the immigrants are hard working and doing the jobs that the millenials are refusing to do. But is this a valid reason for giving illegal immigration a green light, the loss of the American work ethic and lack of families having children that have these respective qualities? Has not socialism gone overboard?
