It is falling apart because too many want something for doing nothing and we’re getting more and more of them moving here every day. Greed and ambition are poles apart.

Yep. More wannabee pundits trying to sound intelligent and just throwing rhetoric out there.

This country is falling apart for a myriad of reasons.

Traditional American values are not one of those reasons. But all of the reasons have to do with abandoning those traditional values.

Greed and ambition can be poles apart. I guess it depends on if your ambition is fueled by greed. People that have responded to my thread don’t realize that it was based on Judeo-Christian values, something Carrey didn’t even mention. “A sense of fair play” is what keeps the free market running smoothly. Without it, you have to have government intervention, i.e. big brother constantly looking over your shoulder.
