That sounds painful.

Over the years, I’ve noticed a steady decline in the number of young people that have any sense of right and wrong. Last night in English class, I had yet another painful reminder that we are raising a group of young people with a complete lack of moral judgment. The topic for the discussion was 'ways to avoid plagiarism.' The professor explained that you don’t want to take somebody else’s work and pass it off as your own. Then I heard it from the back row: “Why not?”

At first I thought he was joking, but was the young gentleman in question was dead serious. Here he is, in college, honestly asking what is wrong with plagiarism. Is this what we are teaching our children these days? Do whatever you want to do as long as it gets you ahead in life? There is no right or wrong? That you should do only what feels good to you? What type of person can go through his life and not know that stealing is wrong?

I can see him as being yet another victim of our utter failure of a public school system. If, by his college years, he hasn’t learned that plagiarism is bad, then I’d wager to say he’s done quite a bit of it himself and probably gotten away with it. I also see him as being a victim of bad parenting. What kind of parent would raise a child with no ability to see the difference between right and wrong? Modern societal influences are partly to blame as well. When was the last time a successful television show depicted the hero following the rules and having a positive outcome as a result? It’s always the ‘bad boy’ hero that gets the job done in the end. No right or wrong, just what’s right for me at the moment. As much as I'd like to place the blame totally on him, can you really fault somebody for not knowing stealing is bad when they've never been taught otherwise? If you give a chimp a gun and the chimp shoots somebody, you can't blame the chimp.

Sorry if I’m rambling a bit, it’s just saddening to see society swirl faster and faster down the toilet.

*double posting ITT*

I just had an Army Reserve recruiter cold-call me at work. Are we really that low on soldiers that they're having to resort to asking me?

How did THAT conversation go?

"Xolly, we'd like you to join the army."

"YAY! I'll get more ass than a toilet seat! Blow jobs for everyone!"

"Well, you've told, but you're enlisted yet so it doesn't really count. Would you have a problem with hiding that part of your life?"

"Uh, yeah."

I am grateful -- indeed, weeping with gratitude -- that they didn't show what was inside that big blue bucket.

the first time i looked at it, i thought the towels (or whatever it is on the floor in the pictures with the blue bucket) were like, the woman's body (the high heel next to it probably didn't help)- that she had died inside the apartment and was rotting away on the bathroom floor. ha.

"This is not political to us. We see it as very spiritual," said Garlow, a leader of an interfaith coalition that has held monthly teleconferences, shared sermons and solicited donations for the ballot measure.

EXACTLY! Exactly my point. You are trying to create secular law based on your religious belief. Thank you, Mr. Garlow, for making my point so clearly.

It's gonna fail. Gay marriage has been legal for a bit now and CA hasn't been smote with fire\flood\tornado type stuff. People are starting to realize that the doom and gloom total collapse of society just simply isn't happening.

I'm waiting for the "Crash of '08" to be somehow connected as a national "wake up children" punishment from OMGAWD upon the nation for not rising up against the apos-States that have allowed it to get this far.

This morning, I explained the current crisis to my daughter in terms that a 10 year old could understand. This is how it went.

Let's pretend that you found a really cool dog house for your pet, but you didn't have any money to buy it and you didn't have a job to pay for it over time - like lay-away. So, you come to me, the bank, and you say, "Dad... errr... Mr. Banker, I want to buy this dog house, can you give me a loan?"

I ask, "Can you pay me back for it?"

You assure me that you can.

I never ask for proof that you're going to earn any money and I just take your word for it. I do this because I know that I'm going to spend $100 on this dog-house, but I owe your mom $100, so I'm just going to tell her, "Bubbles owes me $100 for this dog house that I bought her, but since I owe you $100, I'm just going to have Bubbles pay you back the money. Okay?"

Mom, agrees.

You never pay mom for the dog house and after 6 months, she takes it away from you and sells it to the neighbor for $30 (all she could get for it).

Now, you don't really care because you got to use the dog house for 6 months.

I don't care because I no longer owe mom $100.

Mom's pissed because she only got $30 for her $100 outlay and Mom's husband is pissed because he was going to use that $100 for tickets to a football game.

The football team owner is pissed because there's an empty seat, now. Not just one empty seat, but lots of them because lots of little kids made the same deals with their parents.

The concession stand guy is pissed because there are fewer people to buy hot dogs and the people that are there aren't buying as many hot dogs because they were hurt buy their kids' dog-house purchase, too.

The concession stand guy's wife is pissed because she can't buy more materials for her dog-house sales business because her husband only sold 1/2 of the hot dogs that he bought and the rest went bad.

Now, imagine that same thing happening with Billions of dollars on real houses.
