In other words, the source of a declining number of males fit for combat, is female elementary teachers waging a war on masculinity.

They help gets boys diagnosed with ADHD, easier to handle in classroom, but their lives are screwed up.

Two of my son's teachers suggested
1/
that he be evaluated for learning problems when he was in elementary school, that would have likely led to prescription medication.

He's an A student in high school taking a rigorous curriculum of AP & Honors courses. There's absolutely nothing wrong with him, he can
2/
can concentrate on difficult subject like Calculus & Physics for hours on end - unlike your average elementary school teacher.

But yet, they want the boys on drugs. Makes the classroom easier for them, reduces that toxic masculinity.
3/
And guess what? A nation that lets toxic women drug any boys that show signs of normal masculinity doesn't get to have future soldiers, among many other problems.

Actions have consequences. Letting these women remain in those position will continue to screw up this nation.

I previously written about childless career women as being "Brides of the State". They don't need a man for money, security, food or shelter - so they never marry.

However, they are still in lifetime "marriage" but it is to the State. That inherently means a lot of risk.
1/
If the State fails, or has to slash expenditures, or they lose political control of the State - well, then those women are totally at risk, and this particularly true as they get older. This necessarily comes with the territory of being a Bride of the State.
2/
Now, we know that being a Bride of the State likely carries with it an appointment with destiny. The future State will not be able to cash all the promises that the current State has written for it. This will be particularly true when the reserve status of the US dollar fails,

This thread has gone semi-viral, and whoo boy, are there some mad people in the replies (though the ratio is still 40 to 1 in my favor).

The core issue is that people think they can make binding contracts that later generations will HAVE to honor, even if they are impossible.
1/
No impossible promises will be broken, and this can be stated with 100% certainty.

The specifics of how the promises will be broken are what we don't yet know.

There is so much anger already about the Boomers, but this is still very early stage.
2/
The crisis will be substantially worse when Gen X is retired, and as many already anticipate, this is when the impossible contracts start getting broken in a major way

However, it is the people who are the most angry about the Boomers, who will experience the real rat-fucking

More than that. In the olde days, mortality would occur earlier and often very fast. There were no cures with heart attacks, strokes, cancer, etc. A man would work a physically demanding job to 55 or 62, and then drop dead on the spot.

People in their 70s and particularly 80s
1/
start to become very frail, and are incapable of working after a certain point in jobs requiring physical labor. I don't know how many little old ladies you, but those tough old birds often make it well into their 90s, and may not have been able to really work in 25-30 years.
2/
With an average lifespan of 84 years, it is now routine for people to live 15 to 30 years beyond their ability to work physical jobs.

And the medicine to keep them going each one of those years also gets more expensive.

What the endless anti-Boomer tirades come down to is two things: people live much longer on average than they used to, and the birth rate has slowed way down.

None of this supporting the old was a problem when most people had 3-4 children, before dying by age 60.
1/
Yes, yes, I get it, screaming about evil Boomers using anecdotal examples is a popular meme / hobby here.

But, for things like the wealth concentration & homeownership rates, well those have always been natural trends over time, but they were exaggerated by people living so long
The financial burden of paying for Social Security & Medicare are from the combination of people living so very long, as well having fewer children.

So long as there are 16+ working adults to support one retiree, everything works. 2-3 current workers? It doesn't work.

I was thinking about the CHIPS Act when writing the shipbuilding threads.

No nation can be globally competitive while mandating that most jobs be awarded in a racial & gender-based spoils system. A nation that doesn't do that - like China - will outcompete them every time.
1/
The new semiconductors plants are in fact a massive, patronage-based looting of the American people. The national debt is being increased by what can be millions of dollars per new job, with the substantial majority of the new jobs being reserved for nonwhites & women.
2/
This - of course - means that the new plants will never be globally competitive, and should the massive federal funding ever stop, they would quickly shut down. Typical Dem politics, and the mainstream Repubs are 100% on board as well.

How do we regain the skilled labor force that can build battleships in 2.5 years?

1. Start with a motivated young American
2. Hire him - and all his co-workers - strictly on merit
3. Provide the needed training
4. Give him lifetime job security - so long as he excels,
1/
then his job that is vital to national security will never be offshored
5. Pay him well, enough so that with a few years experience he can buy a home & support a family (this won't be in a super-expensive metro area)
6. Let him spend 5-10 years becoming a true master
2/
of his craft
7. The entire nation then benefits for another 30+ years from having thousands of people like him, who are some of the best in the world at what they do.
8. Have jobs at the factory or the yard for the children of him and his coworkers, this is generational.
