25 Signs America Is a Cesspool of Corruption

Family Security Matters

Do you believe that America is a seething cesspool of filth and  corruption?  If not, you might change your mind after reading this  article.

Sadly, the truth is that the United States is absolutely corrupt to the  core.  This is true from the very top of our society all the way to the  very bottom.  The current administration will likely go down as the most  corrupt in history, and that is really saying something.  Even the men who  are supposed to be in charge of protecting the president are corrupt.  A  whole bunch of them were recently discovered sleeping with prostitutes in  Colombia.

We also find very deep and very pervasive corruption in our financial  institutions, in our judicial system, in our police departments and in our  religious institutions.  It is almost as if nearly the entire nation is  saturated with filth and depravity.  It is becoming harder and harder to  find men and women of integrity, and our young people have very few positive  role models to look up to.  How long is our society going to be able to  continue to function normally if all of this corruption gets even worse?

The following are 25 signs that America is a seething cesspool of filth and  corruption

#1 The men and women of the Secret Service are supposed to be the best  of the best.  Instead, they have become a national embarrassment.  11  members of the U.S. Secret Service are under investigation for consorting with prostitutes in Colombia.   Reportedly, several of the Secret Service agents who hired prostitutes were  married.

#2 Our financial institutions are filled with cheats and liars.   2011 and 2012 have been absolutely horrible years for natural disasters in the  United States.  At a time when homeowners need their insurance companies  more than ever, many insurance companies are systematically trying to weasel out  of payouts and are trying to shift as much liability over to homeowners as  possible.  The following is from a recent Reuters article

Insurance companies are raising rates, cutting coverage, balking at some  payouts and generally shifting more expense and liability to homeowners,  according to reports from the industry and its critics.

“Insurance companies have significantly and methodically decreased their  financial responsibility for weather catastrophes like hurricanes, tornados and  floods in recent years,” the Consumer Federation of America said in a statement  after studying industry data.

The industry concedes that it is trying to avoid getting trounced by  those same punishing weather patterns.

#3 Identity theft for the purpose of stealing tax refunds has reached  epidemic proportions in America.  The following is one shocking example  that made the news recently up in New York

Authorities say a former manager at a nonprofit Long Island health agency  stole the IDs of more than 50 brain injury patients to get their tax  refunds.

#4 The filth on television continues to get worse and worse.  As WorldNetDaily recently reported, one new HBO series  is going way over the line

HBO’s irreverent mockumentary “Angry Boys” is under fire for combining child actors  and phallic humor, including one scene in the series’ 12th episode, where a  little girl drinks from a water bottle shaped like a giant, pink penis.

#5 All over the country, violent crime is getting worse.  For  example, there were 60 percent more homicides in Chicago during the first  three months of 2012 than there were during the first three months of 2011.

#6 Some of the violent crimes committed recently in cities such as  Chicago appear to be absolutely senseless.  The following is one recent  example from the Chicago Tribune

A woman was shot in the face while driving in the Gresham neighborhood on  the Far South Side late Wednesday.

The woman, 38, was driving west in the 2000 block of West 84^th  Street about 11:30 p.m. when a light colored car pulled alongside her and  someone inside fired shots, according to police News Affairs Officer Hector  Alfaro.

#7 It isn’t just in the big cities where these kinds of senseless  crimes are being committed either.  One crime that happened in Tulsa,  Oklahoma recently is almost too horrifying to describe.  The following is  from a recent Daily Mail report

An 85-year-old woman was sexually assaulted and battered to death by a  home invader who also shot her 90-year-old husband in the face with a BB  gun.

Nancy and Bob Strait, who had celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary  in December, were discovered by their daughter at their home in Tulsa,  Oklahoma.

Both the pensioners were rushed to hospital where Mrs Strait, who was  nearly blind, died from her injuries.

#8 The flash mob epidemic that made headlines all over the nation last  year is continuing in 2012.  For example, several dozen young people  recently stormed into a gas station in the Portland, Oregon area and took off with  whatever they could carry.

#9 Thieves all over the nation are becoming incredibly bold.  Up  in New York, thieves recently stole brass plaques and bronze vases from a cemetery.

How desperate and corrupt do you have to be to desecrate the graves of the  dead?

#10 These days thieves will steal anything that they can sell easily  on the streets.  For example, Tide detergent has become extremely popular  to steal because it is being used as an alternative form of currency on the  streets of many American cities.  The following is from a recent article in The Daily

Theft of Tide detergent has become so rampant that authorities from New  York to Oregon are keeping tabs on the soap spree, and some cities are setting  up special task forces to stop it. And retailers like CVS are taking special  security precautions to lock down the liquid.

One Tide taker in West St. Paul, Minn., made off with $25,000 in the  product over 15 months before he was busted last year.

“That was unique that he stole so much soap,” said West St. Paul Police  Chief Bud Shaver. “The name brand is [all] Tide. Amazing, huh?”

Tide has become a form of currency on the streets. The retail price is  steadily high – roughly $10 to $20 a bottle – and it’s a staple in households  across socioeconomic classes.

#11 In Baltimore, a man was recently knocked to the ground, stripped  naked and had his car keys, watch, money and cell phone taken.  In itself,  that is not much of a story.  But what made it a story was that instead of  helping the man, the crowd of onlookers watching all of this happen laughed  hysterically while recording the incident with their cell phone cameras  for YouTube.

#12 The number of Americans who are willing to become permanently  dependent on the government is absolutely astounding.  At this point, there  are approximately 67 million Americans who get some form of financial  assistance from the federal government.

#13 Government dependence is increasingly being glamorized in popular  culture.  For example, one nightclub down in Alabama recently held a “Food Stamp Friday” party.

#14 As I have written about previously, employees of the federal  government are living  the high life at the expense of hard working American taxpayers.   In fact, one federal employee recently made an outrageous rap video about it.

#15 Recently, I reported on the “Obama  flag” that was flying above a Democratic Party headquarters down in  Florida.  Well, now another one has been spotted flying above a home in New Jersey.  During the 2012 election season  will we see American flags that have had the stars replaced with the face of  Barack Obama flying over homes and businesses from coast to coast?

#16 In the United States today, the use of sexual humiliation by  security officials has become normalized.  If you are not convinced of this  yet, you should check out this video of a woman sobbing as the TSA touches her  private areas as they pat her down.

#17 Sadly, TSA officials have shown over and over that they are deeply  corrupt and cannot be trusted.  For example, one TSA manager at Dulles  International Airport was recently discovered to be running a prostitution ring out of a local hotel room.

#18 According to the U.S. Supreme Court, police in the United States  can now strip search you any  time that they want.  All they need to do is to make up some reason  to arrest you.  Needless to say, police all over the country are now going  to be looking for any reason that they can think of to arrest very attractive  women.

#19 In the United States, it has become regular practice for young  couples to “live together” before marriage.  In fact, in America today more than half of all couples now move in together  before they get married.  Sadly, the divorce rate for couples who live  together first is also significantly higher than for those that do  not.  At this point, America has the highest divorce rate on the globe by a wide  margin.

#20 The United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate in the world by far.  In fact, the United States has a teen  pregnancy rate that is more than twice as high as Canada, more than three times  as high as France and more than seven times as high as Japan.

#21 Unfortunately, there are dramatic consequences for all of the loose  sexuality going on in America.  The CDC says that there are  approximately 19 million new cases of syphilis, gonorrhea and  chlamydia in America every single year.

#22 Most Americans have no idea this is happening, but the truth is  that abortion clinics all over the country are selling aborted  baby parts to scientists for medical research.  If we keep  cheapening human life like this, eventually it will mean next to nothing to  us.

#23 According to the results of one recent investigation, an  astounding 30 percent of all Internet traffic goes to  pornography websites.  A different survey found that 25 percent of all employees who have Internet  access in the United States visit pornography websites while they are at  work.

#24 There is a right way and a wrong way to do things.  This is  especially true when it comes to notifying military wives that their husbands  are dead.  Sadly, some women are now being notified about the deaths of  their husbands in the military through Facebook.

#25 Our politicians are stealing 150 million dollars an hour from future generations  so that we can live more comfortably right now.  The American people  participate in this theft by voting these politicians back into office over and  over again.  The crime that we are committing against future generations is  almost too horrible for words.

So what is causing all of this filth and corruption?

Why has America become such a cesspool?
