I don't see the behaviour from the 60's to be the same as what I am talking about. The anti-war demonstrations, civil rights marches, etc. are what we seem to be lacking these days as you pointed out the couped up, obese, video game playing, MTV watching youth are to lazy to bother themselves with anything outside their reality TV lives.

Which poses an interesting notion... Do they both go hand in hand? Does technology advance moral decay or does moral decay advance technology or is it what technology is USED for and applied too?
