This just might be why it's so difficult for us to find REAL MEN in this country (gulch excluded of course...I'm annoyed I had to just write that disclaimer)...and I'm that much for excited about home schooling my grandson.
I can attest to everything this lady says is true in elementary schools. :(

keeps on finding "reasons" to avoid letting
capitalism take off like a rocket. now that we
have "perfected" the industrial age and are
working on the information age, you would think
that we might offer the world a taste -- shrinking
government and expanding charity, creating
millions of work-from-home jobs, even
subcontracting DoD work to Ragnar ... but, no,
we must regulate, stifle, strangle the golden
goose.
I think that it's the raw desire for power over others. -- j
It is obvious by inspection that women in the previous centuries were cloistered against opportunity. Industrialism changed that. One of the complaints of Marx in the Manifesto is that capitalism endangered the traditional family by taking women out of the home. Karl Marx was a social conservative.
Also, your claim about minorities extracting their pound of retribution does not apply to that specific minority in your allusion. Jews were limited in acceptance to Ivy League schools lest they dominate. So, they just went elsewhere. They were not alone. The Ivies were for WASPS. Hence, Georgetown and Notre Dame and Boston College were founded. In short, most minorities made their own way. Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem both from Smith College were among the many who attended women's colleges.
And speaking to that other definition of "conservative" what would be the reaction if welfare were paid to households where married men did not support their families?
You raise the Rawlsian point that every society needs a "floor." But it is misplaced compassion. In a free market, so much would be free that poverty would be unknown. I once saw a guy with no shoes, a homeless guy, below the last rung on the ladder, but it was Albuquerque and he could get away with it. Then, think of all the shoes you see in the road.... Have you ever seen anyone without shoes or clothes? Homeless people push shopping carts of what we leave behind. Their problems are not material but emotional and psychological. We have a surfeit of wealth now. Imagine if capitalism were given its full head of steam.
Yet everyone want to come here for university eduction, where Ohio State and UCLA compete against Yale and Stanford.
In short, while I whole heartedly agree that private solutions and individual initiatives are superior to centralism and socialism, the how and why of that require some thought and analysis beyond just blaming the government for everything.
When it comes to government, you might not be to do much about the President and Congress, but you can influence the local school board. You can run for election and be chosen.
People do not have gender; words have gender, people have sex.
I had a revelation watching CSI: Crime Scene Investigations a few years back. There was a bone the CSI agents found. The coroner identified it as belonging to a black man. What? You mean that skin color is *not* the only physical difference between races??
Likewise, the difference between women and men is more than simply genitalia. The brains are wired difference. You're not going to overcome 2 million years of evolution by passing nonsensical laws and regulations.
A study conducted back in the 80s, and quickly pushed into obscurity, tested men and women on their views of "justice".
The men tended to think that justice lay in punishing bad behavior, and rewarding good behavior, while the women tended to think that justice lay in doing the least harm to the least number of people. I would submit that nowadays most men and women have views on "justice" that are a mixed-up mishmash of these two viewpoints, as their indoctrination conflicts with their instincts.
The study concluded that the women believed as they did because, in our prehistoric past, women ran the "base camp" while the men were out hunting. They were the most competent and able amongst the children, elderly, and crippled/wounded/sick left behind as the men went out to hunt the game which made us different from gorillas and other apes. Their concern was keeping the lid on this boiling cauldron of emotion and pecking order.
Men, on the other hand, were out where life got dangerous and short. A man screws up, somebody gets dead. A man takes a risk and brings down game that otherwise might have eluded capture/killing, and the tribe eats good for a change.
This leads to a mindset which weighs risk, and rewards success and punishes screwups.

it's not political retribution; the left, as part of its attempt to destroy America, created a near-religion of 'equality'. They took one word from one phrase of the Declaration of Independence, removed it from its proper context, and used it to disrupt and destroy a functioning culture.
Any reversal isn't "payback", it's an attempt, almost instinctive, to return the culture to rationality.
There were previous male dominated eras which were NOT succeeded by female dominated eras. We often refer to these eras as "golden ages". There were previous female dominated eras which were NOT succeeded by male dominated eras... or anything else.
But the gov't encourages not offspring, but little bastards. that is not helping at all.
If single mothers were able to bring more into the household by being married, I'll bet there'd by fewer single parent homes. How could that one simple thing improve or society? How would little boys be affected by the presence of a male role model (assuming not all males are bad or useless... yet).
There is nothing wrong with charity. Misguided charity is the problem.
We hide the shame of being a "welfare case" by issuing credit card looking food stamps. So that everyone gets a sense of "being a winner", or minimally "not a loser".
Which goes right back to the video, todays world is about feelings, not achievements. Little boys are a distraction with the lack of girlie feelings. We must correct this genetic drift. The very people that push "diversity" are the same ones that wish to neuter the boys for their differences.
As my parents struggled to provide winter coats and two pair of jeans and a shirt, each for their two boys, as they bought hamburger as a luxury, she had herself and her two children completely outfitted, courtesy of Uncle Sam. They dined on steak.
One day my father turned to my mother (curiously, she was more upset relating this to me than he was...) and said:
"You're a fool."
"Why?"
"Because look at all you could have instead of this struggle, if you'd just divorce me."
People wonder why I use language they consider offensive. I don't consider offensive to insult those whom *I* judge worthy of insult.
Now, garbage like the [censored] who lived above my parents back then don't even have to take shame in being what they are, because anyone who dares call them what they are is chastised for being offensive, while everyone else misses the point.
I imagine I'll get called-out by someone for calling this... creature... a welfare parasite.

Another one got caught today, it's all over the papers. "Teenager Arrested in Computer Crime Scandal", "Hacker Arrested after Bank Tampering"...
Damn kids. They're all alike.
But did you, in your three-piece psychology and 1950's technobrain, ever take a look behind the eyes of the hacker? Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him?
I am a hacker, enter my world...
Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me...
Damn underachiever. They're all alike.
I'm in junior high or high school. I've listened to teachers explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. "No, Ms. Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..."
Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike.
I made a discovery today. I found a computer. Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because I screwed it up. Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me.. Or thinks I'm a smart ass.. Or doesn't like teaching and shouldn't be here...
Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike.
And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found. "This is it... this is where I belong..." I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all...
Damn kid. Tying up the phone line again. They're all alike...
You bet your ass we're all alike... we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak... the bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre-chewed and tasteless. We've been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic. The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert.
This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals. We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin color, without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals. You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.
Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.
I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual, but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike.

A single mother can make more from the gov't if there is no male in the house.
the male has been reduced to that of "sperm donor".
I imagine, that soon, the pleasure of at least being a donor will be replaced by "male order seed catalogs".
To quote the wise Peter Griffin: "Let's drink til we feel no more feelings!"
There's your flaw... what defines "qualifications"?
Almost all employment involves some sort of interviewing process, which will reveal personality, leadership, and other traits not covered by formal "qualifications" (like, "Harvard Graduate" or "degree in Climate Science"). Hell, even two people who attended the same classes and/or worked for the same company will have different performance profiles.
You ever have to hire anyone, Mike?
Another canard. The problem with the argument of "... women perform the identical work as men for lower wages..." is that it's progressive politics. Or collectivist ideology, whichever you prefer.
What it does it say, "all women are identical to all other women, and all men are identical with all other men."
*I* don't perform identical work as my male co-workers with the same job title. Even allowing for the fact that we do similar work, and work that overlaps, the bottom line is, I'm an individual, and I provide a unique quality and quantity of work. That can be a lot, or it can be a little, but it should be judged on an individual basis, not based on genitalia, skin color, club membership, or political affiliation.
