Posted on November 12, 2010 by Steven Goddard

[ Liberals who REALLY love the earth don't reproduce. ]

Shouting fire in a crowded theater is normally considered a crime.

Puck said it best: “What fools these mortals be!”

My children, ages 34 and 32, both decided against having children. Though on many levels I am saddened by their decisions I believe that were I in their position I would, out of compassion and reason, have to make the same bitter choice.

@Robert H
I’m 25. My girlfriend and I have put our plans for children on hold. Until we see meaningful change. We consider the odds extremely low.
I can assure you it’s a heartbreaking choice.
I don’t know what to tell my sister. I haven’t exactly warned her yet, explicitly, but she can read my mind.
It’s so sad.
I wish we could just have a carefree life like your generation has had.

<<Agreed, but Keynesianism is nothing more than a unproven, never tried theory. Keynesianism is not science

Keyns was considered to operate at the intellectual level of Einstein and ran with that crowd e.g. Bertran Russell, Huxly and Whitehead.

Show me any evidence that any economy has ever tried it through both up and down cycles. It remains an unproven, untried theory. It might work, but we are unlikely to ever find out in america.
