Early in the queue as the New World is the path to human future
It is funny how one can be tripped off or tipping point offed in today’s terms. Most hot topics are doomsday, as the decline of western civilization, or if you live in the east, then it is the decline of eastern civilization. The communality is family and community respect. One can make a “subset” about values, and standards. And this is not some kind of multi-culturist diatribe.
The one thing lacking, at least in the USA, is leadership. Do we have anyone in the executive, the congress, or their hired staffs, who will step up for USA values which are mostly cultural values? No, but we do have pandering politicians appealing for our votes, 13 months out … poor devils! That it is pandering, and not real, is so sad. Most just have never been taught.
We send our children to schools, mostly public for K-12. Then some of us spend a lot of money (and a sacrifice at home) sending a kid to college to hopefully provide them an advantage in life, mostly in hiring. After that, they are on their own. Unfortunately, breeding provides little genetic advantage, even given hiring advantages provided by family connections. After all, the companies which hire and pay have to make a living, hopefully a profit. In America it is a cruel, and fair, world.
Is the New World the hope for the rest of the world? Most young people who think they have to assume the mantle, know this intuitively. Most do it by education, some do it by politics, and a few do it by ethnic appeals, to include terrorism. Many more leaders choose the non college path . The common bond seems to be the New World.
Most good leaders will compromise with raising a family, and good on him and her. And he will work like a dog as a good father should. Whether the choice is college or the alternatives, raising a family is a big deal, and good on them.
Running a country is tough work. Leading a nation is much harder.
