Have no fear or concern. Pretty faced young men like Sasse, Flake etc. will rescue the GOP.

I don't know if one can say, "sexual revolution" came, and down we go but to look at that article in general, it does appear so.  Decline in morality, in family and so on.

And number of these continue to erode the foundation of a stable society.

We are now a glass house. Standing, but unable to weather a significant shock that will inevitably come.

I have no doubt that we'll stay on cruise control until that day happens.

And one more thing:
(from the article):
#7 America is turning blue.  Millennials turned out in unprecedented numbers during the recent mid-term elections, and that is one of the big reasons why Democrats were able to pick up 39 seats in the House of Representatives.  According to one recent survey, Americans from the age of 18 to the age of 29 favor Democrats over Republicans by a 66 percent to 32 percent margin.  As older Americans die off, areas of the country that are red or purple today will increasingly be turning blue.

The demographic ignores the effect aging and making a paycheck have on someone who has become a taxpayer. Once mugged, people have a tendency to become more conservative.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
