I'm not proposing that we embark on some wholesale social engineering program, though it ultimately might come to that. Look at the drastic steps China has taken to control it's population.

I would sure like to see some of those values become popular again. I work with a fellow that actually lets his kids 4 boys say N-word as thought the word were carburator. The youngest is 11. Also turns a blind eye to theft. I wonder what the world will be like when those little animals are in positions of influence?
