A steady progression by the most powerful in America from punishment for immoral acts to rewards for immoral acts has led to our present state of disintegration as a nation.
My "bumper sticker" evidence for this would be:
Nixon had to resign in disgrace after covering up a break-in
Reagan had to make a non-apology apology after illegally supplying Iranian Hostage Takers (terrorists) with weapons.
G. W. Bush is hailed by many as a hero after prosecuting an illegal war and habitually violating our Constitution.
In each case the offense grew worse yet the consequences went from disgraceful to almost non-extent until they ended up at actually being a reward.
