What is the primary cause of the erosion of the moral fiber of America?

We, as a nation, have had it good for so long, that we have forgotten what freedom really is. We're spoiled, we're media/celebrity worshipers, we want satisfaction now, we want the best of everything now without doing the hard work to get it. We don't remember what it's like to do without. We have cable, satellite TV and the Internet to keep us up to the minute on everything in the world, we have microwave ovens and drive-thru eating establishments that allow us to fill our guts in mere moments. Our kids are growing up, or have grown up in front of TV and video games and expect their lives to be like what they've seen on the screens. We bicker, fight and war against our neighbors over whose lawn is better, or who has the best SUV or whose dog walked on whose gr. We worhsip the unimportant as the end all of life. History has always shown that when a people is oppressed they become strong and united. Unfortunately, we have had it easy for too long. And our comeuppance, I believe, is right around the corner. Are we ready?
