6 thoughts on “Real Americans Need To Build Families, Reproduce”

  1. Thank you modern feminists. This threat has been feared since the day the movement began (even in the 1800s!) and when the federal government began subsidizing and granting tax breaks for child care, it put some of the load on traditional families trying to make do with one teacher’s salary. I know my wife and I struggled for years in the 1970s on one income, quite close to the poverty level, really, so we could have our kids in the home with their mother — but at the same time we were paying taxes for my militant female colleagues who tossed their kids into cheap day care. Or they asked my wife to look after them from time to time and in turn would be very casual about picking them up on schedule — “so sorry, I had all this work to do . . .” We will not get back to having real families again until (a) young people give up the idea that they are supposed to have everything NOW and (b) women put raising a family ahead of their careers. The other prediction early critics of the feminist movement made were that not only would families suffer, but men, deprived of their traditional roles as providers, would evolve into dilletantes and childish, irresponsible brutes. And they also predicted a rise in LGBTQ behaviors. Nobody listened.

    1. Thanks, W.E., for some great comments.

      The Civil Rights Act gave equal pay to women. Relatively few are aware of this aspect. That destroyed the concept of the “family wage” previously paid to men that could support a family. Obviously, there were various agendas behind this change.

      But this is the responsibility of young women rapt with feminism. It doesn’t have to be this way.

      1. Thank you. The book that outlined the dangers of the feminist movement and its potential for emasculating men was “Sexual Suicide,” published by George Gilder around 1971-1972. It was later revised as “Men and Marriage.” Guilder had lobbied the Nixon Administration to stop the federal government from subsidizing preschool day care when a Democrat bill was proposed in Congress to do the same. Although that bill was vetoed, the Democrats pressed on and it wasn’t long before they got it passed. The family structure was damaged as much by this policy as it was by changes LBJ made to the welfare system. Originally (since FDR’s New Deal), federal assistance to single mothers with children had been available only to widows. Johnson changed it to apply to any single parent with children — never married, divorced, it did not matter. Consequently, in way too many cases the most prolific/high fertility class of women are those who are single and on the dole, not those who are part of whole, self-supporting families.

        1. There is no question, W.E. James, that the various levels of government have made terrible mistakes with welfare policy. I did not know about that particular book by Gilder you described. But like Europe, we are in somewhat of a mess because the native population is not reproducing sufficiently, and leaders therefore feel compelled to import folks from third world countries that are incompatible culturally.

  2. Terry Schilling stands as a stalwart advocate for family values, dedicating his professional life to promoting and defending the importance of strong, cohesive families. He has been instrumental in shaping policies that serve to reinforce family structures and safeguard family rights. His persistent dedication to these principles, combined with his profound understanding of political systems, makes Schilling an inspiring figure for those who seek to affect societal change through policy reform.

    Malthus’ “Essay on the Principle of Population ” is flawed. This work contained his famous argument that human populations tend to grow faster than agricultural output, resulting in famines. This theory has been discredited.
