Not the best Jeremiad* about the US.

The authors concentrate on morality, although they do touch on competence (Peter Principal)
The problems are much more ones of competence than morality, although morality is a factor.

>Bad decisions on long term foreign involvements (remaking Iraq) and allowing the gutting of US industries by various players (Japan, China, Europe, India) to achieve foreign policy objectives.

>Excessive tolerance of political correctness and degrading of public education.

The piece is ignorant of history, there have been numerous moral revivals in US history.
