If we had our druthers, of course, we'd all choose to be brilliant and beautiful. But we're not. Some of us are in fact very far indeed from being either brilliant or beautiful. There are two things to keep in mind about this:
1. It's not their fault.
2. Nonetheless, we should try to discourage people from reproducing if they really can't figure out how to put one foot in front of the other in a society like this. At the very least, people shouldn't have children they can't support.
How can the US can retain (regain?) its status as a first-world country, rather than continue what I see as its Third World Drift? Readers of my other blogs may be surprised by some of the opinions expressed here. Although I generally consider myself on the progressive left-- particularly on environmental issues-- on issues of crime and law and order I stand somewhere to the right of Benito Mussolini. I'm in favor of civilization. You'd be surprised how many people aren't.
