A nation that blithely permits the wanton destruction of marriage contracts without cause or reason, entitles random procreation for profit outside of marriage, turning a very large number women and children into impoverished and unprotected beggars, and makes poverty and involuntary underemployment for men into a crime, gets more of what it manufactures than what it can handle.

Marriage absence is the greatest social and economic problem we face. Two states are near bankruptcy, largely driven by this problem. The problems of poverty, illegitimacy, crime, children in distress, the lack of parenting, will all be naturally and largely be erased when the causal factor -- marriage absence -- is addressed.
