Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[aussiekevin]

I have no idea what you mean when you say we have 'lost our ethical rudder'. Even the sort of abhorent behavior we have seen amongst the leaders of Wall Street is hardly new. Corruption has been with us since the dawn of time.




> The fact is, however, that all the proposed solutions to this country's problems merely address the symptoms, not the cause. We as a people have lost our moral/ethical rudder; we do not adhere to personal higher principles, we do what is expeditious; we have turned away from the higher ideals of a society that has grown so large we no longer understand it and feel dwarfed by it, alienated from the common cause that once united us.
