We have been and continue to be a more permissive, more tolerant society.
Compounded by the fact that the majority of Americans just will not stand and be counted. They will not demand their representatives in Washington do their jobs. They will not attend corporate annual meetings to express their needs, fears or accusations.

The special interest/lobbyists/minority groups/race and minority groups/non racial know the average American will not rise up against an issue that affects Americas core values.

We have become the NIMBY (not in my back yard society).....as long as it is not in my back yard and does not affect me directly (yet).....the average American will do nothing.

Therefore, all that we say we dislike.....really has not much opposition.

Such a distorted state of affairs.....the majority just continues to accept what is dealt. How pathetically sad.
