[QUOTE]Originally posted by WizArtist II: [QB] I believe the base problem is in our society itself. We have raised generations that are only looking out for Numero Uno. The focus of this society is on being entertained and made comfortable at the least possible expense to themselves. There is no pride in doing a good job. There is no sense of self-sacrifice for the greater good only "what's in it for me". They will accept whatever policies allow them to go through life with a full belly and no responsibility for their own actions or to the greater society in general. Politicians rant about waste in government spending, yet are unwilling to put the axe to projects benefitting their constituents. They espouse grandiose schemes of a clean environment, welfare & health care for all but neglect to detail the taxation required to accomplish these goals. Then of course, they feel it necessary to vote themselves substantial raises for their "work". There are no morals or ethics to this society. Those ethical quidelines that are still played lip-service are there to be skirted. When evil actions are brought to light, they are carefully rationalized away by technicalities or by shifting the culpability to others. In this society, nothing is ever YOUR fault, it is the negligence of others that led you to that path. And, of course, this will then require litigation to gain "just" compensation for the failure of these others. Nothing is going to change in this world until People start taking responsibility for their own actions and begin to make those sacrifices necessary to set things to right. Nothing "good" will ever be accomplished without sweat, toil, and tears. The question is, who is willing to make these sacrifices? [/QB][/QUOTE]
