Has our culture created a phenomenon in which doing the wrong thing and becoming famous is something to aspire to?

CPT (Join to see) What i see is discourtesy and disregard for anyone but self, which leads to doing wrong because the moral compass is out of order.

Sgt (Join to see) - Ted,as bad i i dislike saying it.IMO,our generation started in this direction by being the"Me" generation and only considering what the individual wanted,instead of taking real values into consideration.

Social media is one small contributor to the problem. The largest culprit of this has been the support of the Liberal Progressive programs by Democratic administrations. It began with Clinton beginning "Political Correctness." It continued with the Obama administration punishing success and rewarding failure (increasing the welfare rolls, giving out free cellular phones, prosecuting those who did not comply with Political Correctness, etc.) When we as a nation hand out trophies for showing up, praise those who break laws, and make celebrities who speak/act out against all that makes America America, we have lost a part of our national soul. The recent temper tantrums by college students and the "Black Lives Matter" crowds being seen as modern-day heroes is evidence enough that we have taken a wrong and dangerous turn as a nation of civilized people. When we allow and celebrate law breakers, we are sliding down that slippery slope into being just another "has been" second or third world nation.
