America’s Mistreatment of Its Young

America systematically mistreats its young, a partial list:

1. Burdening them with a monstrous debt

2. Raising them in an environment of perpetual war

3. Inflicting the public school system on them

4. Over-prescribing them with drugs

5. Suppressing masculinity

6. Shifting the fruits of their labor to retirees

7. Raising increasing numbers in single-parent families

8. Forcing mothers out of homes and into the workforce

9. Discouraging work and encouraging profiting from drugs

10. Discouraging saving and a long-term horizon
