A few comments to address the "Why" question ......
Most people don't want to hear this, but the cheese starting sliding off our cracker in the 60's when we started actively and aggressively removing any reference of God from our culture. That reference is what defined America's greatness from our very beginnings but we've thumbed our nose at God.
We've aborted 50 million babies in the last five decades and now wring our hands wondering why today's kids have no respect for human life. Really?
We practice situational ethics in every part of our culture and then we wonder why today's kids seem bent on defining their own boundaries of what's right and wrong. Really?
Our leaders (at the highest level) practice corruption, deceit and favoritism and we wonder why today's kids have no respect for authority or the rule of law. Really?
I could go on and on ......
Our chickens are simply coming home to roost. The majority of Americans seemed pretty determined to make the decisions that have led us to where we are today as a culture, but it seems they lack the fortitude to live with the consequences.
As the old saying goes, "You can't have it both ways."
