I blame reality T.V. shows. I hear people talk more about what happened on jersey shore (trash american tv show featuring idiots) than their own lives.
I'm 20 but I'd like to say I am one of the few who does not act the way you describe. My parents raised me well. The only mistake I made was starting to use tobacco.
The lack of respect and the decline of today's society. (RANT)

Actually Hitler was pretty highly involved in a eugenics plan and the party forced abortions and sterilizations on people deemed to have "genetic flaws", anything the party deemed undesirable. I bet you can guess what was "desirable". But that is far removed from the point. It was indeed an absurd statement for myriad reasons.

@Fazer, I pretty much agree with everything you wrote. I however feel that people should be free to do whatever they want in the privacy of their own home. You want to get drunk and wreck your car? It should be legal as long as you do it in your yard. You want to smoke crack and be useless? Fine again, just don't rely on my tax dollars to fund your hobby. Also, giving the government the right to kill its citizenry is a scary thought, which is why I disapprove of the death penalty.
Bingo. Could not have said it better myself.

To further elaborate:
You know why german people are as "SHARP" as a knife?
because their genetics come from people who lived under hittler
if in the 70-80-90's in Romania you'd insult a patient
you'd be in jail
if you'd make an abortion you'd be in jail
if you'd insulted a police man you'd be dead
if you insulted your parents you'd be grounded

I'm not debating this
but you have not lived in communism
America is a country full of cuckoos believe me
I have lived in communism, communism meant order, discipline and RESPECT
people were respectful at that time, same as in England

if you want RESPECT you need DISCIPLINE
and I'l all for the above :-)
and you can only have discipline by punishment, law and bills
because today your life is just as insecure as it gets, I mean you don't even know how insecure it is until you come over to a serious issue, either with the law, birocracy, health, coruption and so on.
they tell you that you can secure your life - (by making you SECURING their lifes, paying htorugh the nose to an insurance company), lol, democracy my ass, this is the New World Order people are blind to see it
I'm not all for communism but still, we had respect back then
ok
I'm not debating just telling you something that you are not familiar with
But communism (or fascism, as was the case with Hitler), accomplish this level of discipline through a brutal state presence. Like you said, if you get out of line you are jailed.
You are the first person of the many people I know who lived through communism in Russia etc that had a positive view of it. Most of them that I know fled to the US to escape it, and didn't ahve ncie things to say. Most countries who instituted some form of communism have crumbled over the years, whilst those who have more of a capitalistic system seem to have prospered. We can say the US sucks all we want, but the US has prospered relative to Russia or Cuba or anywhere else. Even China, infamous "communists" by name, are making a comeback on the world stage via capitalism. They also do the whole intrusive state presence thing, which is why they aren't #1.
The issue is a budgeting one really. We need to provide for those in true need (i.e. a safety blanket), but we don't want to breed a culture that encourages people living off the government dole.
No country has actually had had pure, real communism, nor has any had pure, real capitalism. Usually the government messes it up one way or another and just uses the term "communism" or "capitalism" to seize power and oppress the people.

@precious, exactly what I said, I reject communism and its tenents.
I'm really curious though, what makes us a nation of cuckoos? That we have unparalleled freedom to do pretty much whatever we want, say what we want, think what we want, worship what we want and screw who we want? Don't get me wrong, there's a lot of stupid Americans here who have no idea how lucky they are to live here.
There's also a lot of problems within our borders- we have a tendency to want the government to rule us like a mother and each year we lose a tiny bit of our freedom. We also have a jingoistic desire to make all other countries confirm to our code of conduct.
But overall it seems that your argument is that we're cuckoo for freedom and capitalism. If you're Marxist, that's fine, but you shouldn't label an entire country stupid or crazy because we're not under a communist dictatorship. I mean, if you're longing for that type of system then Cuba, North Korea, Laos and China should welcome you with open arms.

I see my girlfriend's KID demanding his poor unemeployed mom to buy all the crap in the world
Even shouting at her, demanding to buy a specific kind of bike and tenis raquet when he doesn't even deserve them?
Lmao if my dad was alive he would have would have been petrified of this attitude of children today
If I behaved like this with my dad, I sure would have slept on the kitchen sofa daily lmao

All the evil capitalist grandparents in America used to go by the saying that "Life isn't fair, and no one owes you anything. You have to go take what you want (as in work for it)".
