it begins with the church. Then the family. Then the schools. Each and every one of these has left kids to make up their own rules for themselves, for their time, for their subculture.
Remember when Sundays were family dinners for get-togethers? How many times have we seen or heard about families on phones while out to dinner? Even while walking around, on phones. I have seen it. I can't be the only one who has noticed it. Fewer manners, less interest in new people. It is all empassing, the diminishing of acting like human beings who understand culture or manners or respect for others or even desire for truth. It's all about subcultures now and who we agree to hate. More or less.
In the greenhouse industry particularly high school students and the retired used to work the summers. For several years it is impossible to find the youth to work, and when they are hired they spend their time on their phones and simply do careless, crapy work. Pay has nothing to do with this.....they simply don't want the jobs. As in other areas I'm sure there's a leftist push for foreign labor....and we shouldn't, but improving the work ethic in America is most important!
