Wake up America!!! Our society is based on making the quick buck with the least amount of pain involved. Cheating has long been embedded in our way of life. Most successful among us are those who can cheat w/o getting caught. Like I said this permeates into most things we do as a country.
We as Americans always talk the ethical & moral high talk but repeatedly our actions say otherwise and the rest of the world is catching up to these hypocrocies, in this fast information age. Its one of the underlying reasons for the eroding support & mistrust among our allies and a huge if not primary cause of hatred towards us from our enemies. Repressive & unfair practices will always lead to tensions and ill will. I think the young generation would do good to remember & living by the old addage "NO PAIN NO GAIN"
