Maybe America is worse off morally than they were 200 years ago, or at least it's more open about its sin. There was still plenty to go around, though. The world has had major problems ever since Cain and Abel ran into trouble.

very true. Read about the aristocracy of England in the early 1800's; no morals to speak of.
Just like this recession is the worst ever (tic)....due to the fact that we now have 24 hr news to proclaim it . No one remembers the early 80's which was actually worse; but no CNN to cheer us up 
Same thing re the moral decay of 2009. Yes, our country has the morals of the proverbial alley cat and unfortunately it seems to be accepted, but it's not necessarily "New" sin.
