Our children see this behavior and learn from us, they have no idea the history of this place they only know what they see before them. Our young men aspire to be “businessmen’ which is a fancy way of saying drug dealer.
Our women feel comfortable going out in public in clothes that would make a veteran harlot blush, they leave little to the imagination. Many of them are single mothers raising daughters who will grow up and repeat this cycle of making the same bad choices as their parents.
We should be ashamed, our ancestors may their souls rest in peace are looking down on us and wondering why did they struggle so hard if this is what we are content with becoming. It is often said that people get the government that they deserve. So that must be why we have been stuck with one that is content to give us bread and circuses instead of trying to fix the real issues.
We have one generation or less before the rot and decay are too great to overcome and we become a knockoff version of America complete with all its woes. If I were a betting man I would bet against us, we have shown no inclination that we will ever be serious about addressing any of our deep-seated societal ills. Everyone with any common sense is now eagerly heading for the exits, the s.s bvi is slowly but surely steaming towards her doom. But will our leaders see the iceberg before it’s too late, very unlikely.
