THE UK GENERAL ELECTION AND THE QUESTION OF POVERTY
If we listen to the politicians there is a great deal of poverty in the UK. There are certainly many families where the children grow up deprived of the food and clothing other children enjoy, and many parents who do indeed have a low income and depend on Food Banks. As indeed is the case in many countries in the EU, and especially Germany. But is this a purely economic question? Is one nasty party creating all this and we just have to vote for the opposition to put things right? It is all just about money or is it?
If we go to Food Banks the first noticeable thing is that the vast majority of families who go there are single parent families. The inevitable consequence of women going out to work was that more and more the economy was shaped to a two wage family. Many women at first went to work to give their families more luxuries but this ended up as the two wage system adjusted to the economy in many working woman inevitably working for the necessities. Then came the spiral in divorce and the sexual revolution brought the abuse of woman by predatory men, and the rise in single parent families. Nobody seemed to care about this, but women were invited to kill their unwanted babies. Touching on another subject nobody seemed to care about the children growing up without a Dad or sometimes a Mum. The word Love was restricted to sexual activities and that it applied to a relationship between a Father and Son or Daughter, complimented by a relationship between a Mother and a son and daughter was beyond it seems the comprehension of those shaping our society. There apparently was no difference between the love of a Dad or the Love of a Mum. So we established a society where there are many experts with no understanding of the basic needs of a family, who watch things get worse, and just blame lack of money for their narrow understanding of poverty. They give advice on poverty, knife crimes, and juvenile delinquency but have no understanding of the full needs of a person. The Secular Society has failed us..
