Perhaps America's culture and values have changed?
If that is true, please think real hard and answer the question yourself. If you can true be objective and analytical you will come up with a fairly logical answer. I have an answer, but you won't like it. Jose -- Humans are pack animals. Above all things, they have a deep need to follow something, be it a leader, a creed, or a mob.

The reason you think I won't like it is because you know it is probably not objective, thoughtful or un-biased. I am an engineer by training and trade so I like things that are accurate, objective, honest and correct. |

What's the question? America's culture and values =have= changed - some for the better, some for the worse. Culture and values are not something that can be measured, like air pressure or altitude. People's reactions to culture and values are not governed by simple laws like F=ma (except in the degenerate case). Objective and analytical people disagree with each other - simply being objective and ayalytical will not guarantee an answer you cotton to. Just consider for a moment the role of unions 100 years ago, and their present incarnation. There is a significant adverse change in attitude right there. Consider the degree of litigiousness - I suppose that is amenable to measurement and objective analysis (though it is not true that "all things are equal" - some adjustment is necessary to isolate the causes).
