Patrick J. Buchanan. The Death Of The West (№ 252988)

Why is this happening? One of the reasons socialism, a beautiful ideal European intellectuals for several generations. "If you promise everyone a state pension, children will cease to be insurance against old age, says Dr. John Wallace of Johns Hopkins University. - If a woman earns more than enough to feel economically independent, she will not be in whatever was to find a husband. But if you can have sex just like that, not referring to the conception, - today this is as true for Catholic Italy, and for a secular Britain - why get married and get married?" Freeing husbands, wives and children of family responsibilities, European socialists have eliminated the social need in the family. As a consequence, the institution of the family began to wither away. And this institution has begun to die out and Europe.
