"What was the beginning of the end."...
All the bullshit pulled by Lincoln. He rode rough over the constitution and after other politicians saw how easy it was to do, they added to it. Honorable mention has to go to F. Roosevelt and W.Wilson |

1964 Civil Rights Act
1965 Immigration Act. 1965 Medicare Act This two-year period under LBJ is what sunk this country, and we are now past the point of no return, no matter what Trump does. Our national character and national identity has changed. |

I'd also like to add the decline of the presence of a father in the household.

Yeah another good one. Quote:
When women get a good man such as myself. They lie, cheat or take advantage of him. Then comes the I'm not in love anymore or I'm not happy.(Like we are dancing monkeys to entertain our spouses?) Then they decide to divorce without our consent, and take our kids from us and financially rape us. Now after all that do you know why men do not want to be around or become step parents to someone elses kids? See above. This is the second time for me. This after 20 years of marriage. The first one was 12 years. Will not be a third in my lifetime. Too poor and too tired to go through the pain anymore. Oh and they lied to us growing up that being a nice guy is the best thing yadda yadda. No being an azzhole seems to work out much better because those are the guys that seem to make out better. |

yeah well those are the guys that seem better off with the women in this era, and this area. The thing is after they get treated poorly they run after these guys, and then complain about them? Is that crazy or just me? Or you get the ones that say they want a nice guy then lose respect for him for being nice? WTH? Catch 22 type stuff huh?

I don't think we will end, but I do think the shit is going to hit the fan again. We are about due for a reset, and it will be all about what the populace can stomach. Are we going to sit around and have every last constitutional right stripped from us, or are we eventually going to rise up, and let them know we have had enough? I'm not going out to start it, hell, I just want to ride motorcycles and drink beer this weekend, but I really feel like we are close to breaking. How much will honest, hard working Americans have stripped from them, just to support corrupt politicians, and people in this country illegally, or people that are here legally ie:muslims, that want to end our way of life. I'm pretty sure the train is too far down the track to turn around, so eventually it will hit a wall, things will get nasty, but get back to some sense of normal at some point. As to when it started, it started when politicians began buying votes with handout programs for deadbeats. Hell, SS is the greatest Ponzi scheme of ALL time, and we all know what kind of shape it's in. Politicians are bought and paid for, and now we are reaping the consequences.

All the entitlements were created out of "The Great Society". LBJ screwed the entire country forever.

and IF kids were a product of the typical married couple, the kids were pushed asside by the necessity of two incomes that also upped the family tax bracket, mortgage interest deductions or not.... add THAT on top of the LBJ bullcrap, which was mainly a Kennedy proposal going nowhere, from the way I recall it anyway......it was the end of the typical American lifestyle that developed over the previous ~50 years or so.....happening in the cities and the close in 'burbs' on small/townhouse lots but not so much in the far out villages, even though the small businesses had the wives running the joints....with the kids along side them.... |

Lots of good thoughts here. I don’t know where it began exactly, but the last administration added NOS. The current one may well shoot it in the head. Most of us do not truly appreciate just how ****ed we are. Our grandchildren are not going to have the lives that we did. So sad.
