So, long term, what can we do? I read a post yesterday that was insightful. The poster said his father assured him that the US would not slide into even further corruption. It seems more than likely dad was right. All the lying, corruption, fraud, etc. will produce a rejection of immorality and the next generation will embrace integrity enthusiastically. I heard something to this effect in regard to “The Victorian Era” the other day, as well. The Victorians are remembered for their strict propriety but no one knows or remembers the reason they did so was a rejection of the lack of morals that preceded them.
So the future most of us will not see will probably look more like the 50’s than the 60’s or 70’s. IMHO, our task then, is to make it important that our posterity remember WHY so it will be harder for the immorality to resurface. Expect another Great Awakening but let us hope and pray for an awakening that is more able to resist the deterioration of morals we have witnessed. It won’t be easy and there is much work to be done. It doesn’t seem to me to be inevitable either. While one might think that no society can fail to realize it cannot function without integrity I am reminded that Latin America has been burdened under the asphyxiating weight of “the mordida” for centuries.
The only problem with your thesis is that your government has and is still in the process of importing 50-100 Million
cretins from the Middle Eastern and South American Countries that for the most part have absolutely no understanding of the Founders and what they created here.
They are only interested in a couple of things...Free Stuff from the Government and their ability to push their radical religious beliefs.
America is asleep while your Leaders import a whole new Generation of Far left wing kooks.
