There are some stories that are so outrageous that we must address them. The recent arrest of New Jersey political, religious and business people speak to the extent of corruption in the public arena. The effects of Bernard Madoff's crimnal activities will be felt for a long time.
Our governmental enforcement agencies are hard pressed to ferret out all of the stealing and crime ridden systems in our country.
How is it that we have lost moral integrity in the public arena? Why do we permit corruption to be the order of the day? Is it that the human species is susceptible to greed and unable to avoid its powerful appeal?
One of the basic commandments is that "thou shall not steal."
Until we practice what we preach, youth all over America will fall prey to this awful sin.
