In recent months, newspapers around the country have published stories that sound like they could have been written 100 years ago. Indiana’s syphilis cases skyrocketed by 70 percent in a single year. Texas’ Lubbock county was under a “syphilis alert.” Various counties face shortages of the medication used to treat syphilitic pregnant women. But the headlines are very much modern—and urgent.
Syphilis is back, public-health experts say. For many years, syphilis was considered a practically ancient ailment—a “Great Pox” that, like tuberculosis or polio, Americans just don’t get anymore. There were just 6,000 cases of primary and secondary syphilis in 2000, and the CDCbriefly thought the disease’s total elimination was within reach. FULL REPORT

Gee, ya think 1000s of illegals coming here without naturalization and a belief that 12 is the age of consent might have something to do with it.

So many buy into the part that it’s the government’s responsibility to fund such clinics…how about, they are the ones lying to you in every way possible. They are the ones with the depopulation agenda. READ about Margaret Sanger (founder of Planned Parenthood), she’s an example of the elitist mentality that promotes vulgarity and every sort of perversion, in order to dispose of as many as are foolish enough to go along with it. Young people are the ones at risk the most. They have no experience in the real world and are dependent on what others tell them. So, if their parents and the surrounding society believe a lie…so do they. And they won’t understand until they’ve already made a number of life choices. Sadly, too many never understand, and the cycle continues. It used to be that society agreed about what was safe and moral, which provided a barrier of sorts to the young. Of COURSE they made mistakes and of course there were rebels, but the majority were kept from so many of the mistakes we make today a young people. I know that I would have never though about ‘open marriage'(popular during the 70’s) until it was bandied about by women’s magazines. And as a young person I bit. WRONG ANSWER. Too late. Breaking down the moral standards results in throwing our young to the lions and watching them be torn to pieces. If you haven’t noticed they are under attack from every corner, from the womb to schools, to the military now, and by every movie and all kinds of lies. We have headed, as a Nation down the wrong road, and multitudes are in grave trouble and pain as a result.
