American Aporia, State of Confusion

"wealth does not bring goodness, but goodness brings wealth and every other blessing, both to the individual and to the state" -Socrates

Could it be that the decline of the dollar, and the sub prime mess are directly related to a decrease in "goodness" both at the level of the state, and the individual? Citing sources or referencing science are irrelevant in a perceived level or amount of "goodness" considering the measure is objective. However; I think it is safe to say that the average American shares a growing sentiment of government distrust, and disgust of public figures who display their wretched hearts (and sometimes other parts), for all to see.

Just a thought....
