I see that Thanksalot has weighed in. Absolutely the rein of FDR and the Presidency of LBJ were huge watershed events in the growth of the welfare society. There is so much more than that going on. There is a huge rise in the percentage of children born out of wedlock, with the percentage for Caucasians rising to where it was for African Americans in the mid sixties, while that percentage has ballooned from 25% to 70% in the same period.

Today's children are being raised by cartoons and TV programs while parents let it happen. The disconnection from traditional values will increase as the next generation matures until parents put down their feet and declare their right to be parents.

We have educators that are enabled to tell a version of history that they learned from anti American sources while downplaying the truth and ignoring any attempt at balance. The search for ultimate correctness has caused history to be scrubbed for minor characters in an effort to produce great people for history to cover.

It is difficult to tell which is the cause and which is the symptom.
