Worst Global Economy Since WWII

It seems our nation has lost all semblence of accountability for our actions whether it be governmental, business or personal. As a former Republican, I voted for Georgie in 2000 then lost faith in him soon afterward due to his disreagard for our nation thus in 2008 I voted Dem. Business is as bad as government, as deceit is the norm constantly cheating people out of greed, desire for profits, mired in debt, etc... My apartment complex is a prime example, built by a retired couple paid for in cash, sold to a management company, now mired in debt, going bancrupt fast. Our population is not accountable in parenting, financial responsibility, patriotism or just plain decency. The causes of our situation vary from greed, lack of respect for ourselves and others, a machiavalian sence of societal norms and simply a broken national spirit. Our nation first has failed to respond to the 9/11 attack, eliminated financial and fiscal safeguards and have failed to service our debts. I feel the remedy to our situation is to rebuild ourselves from scratch, rebuild our economy from cash savings, rebuild our labor force, rebuild our families with values, courtesy and honesty, rebuild our society via the Constitution and our ten commandments, reinstate business ethics to turn a fair profit instead of a predatory profit, use our resources wisely and generally give of ourselves not necessarily money but time, kindness and love. While not a religious person myself, the Bible is a firm guideline toward a great lifestyle and decency religion not withstanding.
