Headline: "Traditional values like patriotism, religion and community
have plunged dramatically among Americans: poll"
[excerpt] Long-held values like patriotism, religion and community
involvement are in retreat across America, according to a stunning
poll released Monday.
The Wall Street Journal/NORC survey found that just 38% of
Americans say patriotism is “very important” to them, down from
70% who said the same in 1998.
Slightly more Americans (39%) placed the same importance on
religion, down from 62% who said faith was “very important” to them
25 years ago.
The percentage of Americans who said raising children was “very
important” fell to 30% in the new poll, down from 59% in 1998.
Meanwhile, the share of Americans who valued involvement in their
community as “very important” fell to 27% — down from a high of
62% in 2019, the last time the question was polled.
One virtue long associated with liberals, a belief in tolerance for
others, is now deemed very important by 58% of Americans — down
from 80% four years ago.
In 1998, 70% of Americans said patriotism was very important to
them. That has fallen to 38% today, a Wall Street Journal poll found.
By contrast, the only value that has grown in worth to Americans is
money, with 43% calling it “very important” compared to 31% who
said the same in 1998. [end excerpt]

Leftists should celebrate. They are in the process of destroying our
country, and they are succeeding beyond their wildest dreams.
Oh, and that last point just above about money -- keep in mind that
it's the Bible that says, "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of
evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness,
and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." 1 Timothy 6:10
