Below you talk about something very germain. But it has more with who we elect as our representatives than a lack of values.
Take a simple look at Bush, Cheney, Rove and the peopel around them. so these seem like good people to you? And this is supposed ot be the party of family values. Say what??
Now look at Obama, Biden and Axelrod. See a difference.
Or to contrast better look at the right wing fellows like Limbaugh, Hannity, Coulter, Ingrahm and O'reilly.
Now contrast that to Michael Kingsley, Rachel Maddow, Caroline Kennedy and John Stewart.
There is your values. Imagine what type of values each person is teaching their kids. It is the kind of values, no t values. to some racism and bigotry and cettainly ignorance is a value.
Personally, I believe the liberals teach better values to their kids than conservatives e.g. recycling, sharing, learning. And that evolution is real-lol.
>>Maybe. However, the culture of corruption seems to have taken root in the USA. How do you regulate against that? What makes us beter than the rest of the world? We've managed to keep corruption to relatively low levels, even as we have kept our markets free. Go to China or India and you'll see how corruption is crippling their economies, even as they have grown gangbusters. We have to fight against this culture of anything goes that has taken root here. I think it begins with values being taught to our children.<< |
