Victor Davis Hanson: Why Young Men Are Struggling From Loneliness and a Broken Culture

On this episode of "Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words," Hanson takes a deep dive into one of the most pressing and least discussed crises in America today: the collapse of young men’s mental health, purpose, and social development.

Drawing on new polling, Hanson breaks down the staggering data: over half of young men self-report poor mental health, nearly half have two or fewer friends, and a shocking number have no mentors, no communities, and no sense of direction.

“The best thing Trump could do is to get the interest rates back down to a mortgage of 4% or 5% and have a nationwide tax incentive program for people to build homes, and then to socially, culturally, inculcate a new, ‘It’s wonderful to get married in your early 20s, it’s wonderful to have children and family.’ And we’re going to really honor men who marry, buy homes, and are good providers,” said Hanson.
