Americans are very, very good at both LYING and CHEATING.
Our parents started lying to us at an early age about Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and why they were yelling at each other.
Our parents cheated on their taxes, took mementos from historic sites, ignore the speed limits, and tried to bribe our teachers for better grades.
When our national academic scores were down, instead of teachers teaching us how to learn, they taught us the test.
Students memorize for the grade instead of wanting to retain knowledge.
Wealthy parents make donations so the college will accept their average child.
Wealthy college graduates bring war chests of money to owners of businesses to circumvent paying their dues.
Athletes take performance enhancing drugs to give them an edge over the competition.
Politicians lie about what they are going to do once they get into office.
Owners of companies, CEOs, Plant Managers lie to employees about the future of the company or layoffs.
Married couples lie to each other and their children about having affairs.
Children lie to their parents about drinking alcohol, smoking, and taking drugs.
My advice is to stop doing this if you can...
