No, capitalism is not a failure. Unfettered capitalism is, though. That's why FDR set out to create a kinder, gentler capitalism, with a modest safety net, labor unions, support for widows and their kids, and some regulation of the stock market. That worked pretty well. The trouble began with Reagan's union-busting, and deregulation of many industries and certain aspects of financial services. The situation has gone downhill since.

Other states include Louisiana and Mississippi, very religious, among the Blackest states in the USA. Texas is religious and home to a large Hispanic population. .
Yeah, that’s the irony: evolution benefiting populations that are less likely to accept evolution.

I can't deal with either.

What influenced you to be a stay-at-home-father for a few years?
Hey, Green, I didn't find my forever love (after many relationships that lasted a few years) until I was 35. He is younger than me, but we've been together a long, long time. Like 36 years. We got married last year. So if you really want a relationship, just wait and one day it will happen. Do you ever date women older than you?

Sorry this is off topic.

Good hunting!

Oh, yeah, relationships have to be nourished and there will be bad times, too.

In the US, it is 1.93 for 2020. More people die, than they are born at that rate. Arabs have rate of 8.
For Arabs 8? In earlier times perhaps, but not anymore!

Illegals will have those babies because they are all attached to dollar signs. Government handouts will produce more babies.

You and your family are the exception to the rule. Most Mexicans have large families.

Government funded devolution. Sounds like democracy. Definitely “their” democracy.

Very true. The type of capitalism practiced today is debilitating to society.

Tell that to those cattle that breed which you in turn eat. Also think how they are raised. Hint, its not on native grasses on the lone prairie like God intended. Its lot chemicals and grain and grain byproducts in confined area. And soy.... and even chicken manure. Yea "he used to come over to our house and eat chicken, **** I know him...."
