Longer Chains

They said that they were building a great society, that poverty would be vanquished, brought down onto its knees. So they gave lots of hand-outs to the destitute and poor, and every year they cried ‘compassion,’ we must always give more. But almost from the very start problems arose unforeseen, hitting home so very hard in the inner cities. With welfare checks coming in there was no need for a man, didn’t matter if you worked or not, you’d still have cash in hand. And the more kids you had alone, the more money they’d send you, incentivizing single parenthood, a horrible thing to do. Thus the families fell apart, and for children it sucked, starting from a broken home leaves the youth out of luck. Seventy percent of urban children, born out of wedlock, the foundations of society this situation rocked. The teenage boys had it the worse, unchecked masculinity, with no fathers to reign it in, leads to criminality And, of course, these violent gangs prey on business and shops, so most just up and moved away, taking with them the jobs. Even if you want to work hard and fight for your escape, there’s few places left to punch a clock and earn your daily pay. All of this the consequence of an old desire to help, point out the vicious cycle and the P.C. crowd all yelps. They have to see the futility, yes, I think that they know, but their only way into office lies in bribing for votes. Get a person hooked on hand-outs, gives you leverage and sway, “Vote for me on election night, or the money goes away…” Well all know this is detestable, that free men don’t do this, but long ago some decided it was a ‘small’ price for office. The endless cycle now created is one of grinding pain, they made cities vote plantations, and gave people longer chains. But the future does not have to be miserable, bereft, to end this man-made travesty, turn your backs on the left.
