good post and so true. As Eric Fromm once said: The most neurotic person is he who adpapts successfully to a neruotic system e.g. nazi's or lying. Or as Michael Kinsley said: 'a gaffe in politics is telling the truth. What is so sad is that most americans do not care if their pundits and politicians lie e.g. FOX news. <<Lying has been derealized; itis now the expected norm. To tell the truth--on your resume, on your loan application, on your tax form, and about your own actions-- is now tainted and suspicious; the truth-teller is reviled as "putting on airs" of moral superiority, and they will be shunned and cut off by the liars around them. Cheating on tests no longer carries any stain of ethical corruption; "everyone" cheats lest they fail to get into the university of their choice, the one that represents "the short cut" to a "good job" with excellent pay: yes, a job doing evil every day. But we no longer care about doing evil; we avoid it as a moral slaughterhouse we prefer not to see. Let the butchering of the moral heart of the nation be hidden from our delicate eyes and quivering guilty consciences.
