This reminds me of the speech in The West Wing, where the president explains his reasoning for accepting the censure. No one takes responsibility for anything anymore. We foster, we obfuscate, we rationalise. "Everybody does it." That's what we say. So we come to occupy a moral safe house where everyone's to blame so no one's guilty. I'm to blame. I was wrong. If at the end of the day you can sleep well, more power to you! But things will continue to decline if everyone's only looking out for themselves.
