I agree with you...and let's throw in integrity. If you have integrity nothing else matters, if you don't have integrity nothing else matters
oh for the days of Huntley/Brinkley and Walter Cronkite....they reported the news...every journalist (and I use that term loosely) today wants to be come the next Woodward or Bernstein....
we have become a nation of selfish people that want everything for free....
I believe in helping others get up on their feet and stay there....but WAY to many people are 'gaming' the system and they want more free stuff...sadly it has become a way of life for too many
Now the country of Bermuda has a welfare system that seems to work....everyone that receives welfare has to have a job, doesn't matter how much you earn at the job, but you must have a job...Bermuda's system will then subsidize them so that they have enough money to live a respectable and secure lifestyle...which after all is how we'd hope everybody is able to live
