Modern medicine and the social welfare net in the First World has led to entire generations of people that could barely cope with basic living, to not only survive but procreate en masse. We're several generations deep of welfare bums having dozens of kids living off the government dole.

It's no wonder that the number of mentally ill and homeless populations are skyrocketing.

What did you think was going to happen to all those kids born to lazy drunken addicts that you looked down on when you were in school? Remember them dropping out of school because they couldn't learn basic reading and math, and getting pregnant at 15?

Once again, the the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.

More guns then?

Mental illness is genetic.

If you have high anxiety issues, your kids are likely to have high anxiety issues.

Schizophrenia runs in families.

We've been medicating and saving mentally ill people for a few generations. When they want to kill themselves, we tell them to get treatment instead and to cope with their suicidal thoughts.

All of those mentally ill people have had millions of children who are also mentally ill, hence the growing mentally ill population.

It's basic mathematics.

If you allow tall people to have tons of kids, you'll have lots of tall people in society. If you allow mentally ill people to have lots of kids, you end up with a whole new generation of lots of mentally ill people who become homeless in an increasingly competitive society.

Wait, are you suggesting that anyone with mental health concerns be sterilized? Wow.

That's a bit radical. I think it's closer to Darwin.

Why should I read an entire book? Just provide the summary.

Wait, are you suggesting that anyone with mental health concerns be sterilized? Wow.

I've made no proposals about social policy.

I've merely put forth an explanation as to why we're seeing what we're seeing.

Truth be told a fetus after birth could eventually be a Beethovan or a Hitler. It's a bit of a crap shoot.

Hijacking this thread will piss off the usual suspect.

There are actual studies of twins and how they deviate onto different paths. When time permits, I'll do more research rather than rely solely on memory. I'm really busy now doing my mall cop job.

There are also studies of brothers/sisters separated at birth and how their lives differ or not.

For the sake of convenience and conveying ideas, just shed the light in your own words.

I would propose a three year pilot project.

1. Death by firing squad for drug dealers of controlled substances.
2. A three year incarceration for those found in possession of controlled substances with mandatory substance abuse therapy,
3. Increased public and international shaming of China and Mexico for supply and peddling fentanyl components.

I met people who have gotten out of poverty. They became poor for various reasons. None of them because of drugs.
