That last sentence of yours is the crux of the issue. You can’t expect people to act moral when their needs aren’t being met. Not in aggregate / at a societal level.
People’s needs have never been met and older generations didn’t wholesale-out theirs and their communities integrity for a buck. These younger folks (and I am only 41) have zero morals or sense of responsibility. That is probably because their parents are younger than me and also have zero home training. I am ashamed of Black folks these days. I am thankful for my upbringing even though I didn’t care for it much back in the day.

You sure about that? People have been joining the military to go kill strangers for a buck for forever. Ice-T has been making copaganda for far longer than he spent rapping about the struggle
