Paying the price for breakdown of the country's bourgeois culture

Too few Americans are qualified for the jobs available. Male working-age labor-force participation is at Depression-era lows. Opioid abuse is widespread. Homicidal violence plagues inner cities. Almost half of all children are born out of wedlock, and even more are raised by single mothers. Many college students lack basic skills, and high school students rank below those from two dozen other countries.

The causes of these phenomena are multiple and complex, but implicated in these and other maladies is the breakdown of the country’s bourgeois culture.

Already some liberal idiot lawyer named Joe Patrice in some legal mag condemned Wax and Alexander for advocating common sense solutions to problems faced by many people trying to make their way in life.
This numbskull Patrice actually thinks Wax and Alexander were advocating "white supremacy" when they, Wax and Alexander touted practices  used by Americans of all colors for centuries to rise above poor circumstances.
Patrice also said the profs. should be fired for what he claimed was shoddy and false assertions about crime and jobs.  I think Patrice should walk down some streets in certain American cities after midnight UNARMED to prove his point.

This numbskull Patrice actually thinks Wax and Alexander were advocating "white supremacy"...

I doubt he believes that. It's a tactic to shut them down.
