You may note that everyone is getting on board now with my explanations either directly, indirectly, or by their own eventual discovery, that men are moving right (responsibility) and women are moving left (irresponsibility) and that without the reciprocal compromise of marriage, for reasons whether economic, emotional, sex, reproductive, and late-age-care, the incentive to behave as other than a hyperconsumer with minimum burdent of civic responsibility, that reproduction is crashing.

Now I have a pretty good recipe for fixing it. But, how many people will give up crime in favor of productivity if they aren’t forced to, and how many people will give up hyperconsumption of the commons instead of production of commons if they aren’t forced to?

The only reasons humans have to cooperate are (a) family production (b) commons production that produce discounts on family production, (c) polities that produce discounts on the commons production that in turn produce discounts on family production.

If we do not put the family first, which will force the commons second, and the polity third, then we have no reason to cooperate at all other than to engage in the most massive tragedy of the commons since the fall of Rome.

The pill, no fault divorce, elimination of ‘marrying the state’, intergenerational redistribution instead of mandatory savings, and dozense of other follies have led to one obvious lesson:

There are four certainties in life: death, military service, taxes, and reproduction.
