This book was presented as a landmark work offering a comprehensive look at the male crisis, searching for its roots and proposing solutions. It highlighted how work rates for American males had spiraled downward between 1965 and 2015, creating an army of jobless men.
"
He says the catastrophe is the collapse of work for men in the half century between 1965 and 2015. Work rates for the American male spiraled relentlessly downward and ominous migration commenced a flight from work. In whichever greater numbers of working age men exited the labor force altogether.
America is now home to an ever-growing army of jobless men, no longer even looking for work over 7 million between ages 25 and 55 the traditional prime of working life.
The troubles posed by the male flight from work says Nicky Burstatt are by no means solely economic. It's also a social crisis and a moral crisis. The growing incapability of grown men to function as breadwinners cannot help but undermine the American family.

"
Yvonne Levin, really good thinker over the American Enterprise Institute, he had a book recently called The Time to Build.
And he talked about how politics had basically shifted from a place where institutions shape the people who are instituted. If you went into Congress, Congress shaped you. You had to work within the boundaries of Congress to get things done.
Here's what Yvonne Levin writes in his book, A Time to Build, because I think it's super relevant.
