The crumbling ethics of American Youth

The Josephson Institute's 2008 Report Card on the Ethics of American Youth is based on a survey of nearly 30,000 students in high schools across the U.S. The results paint a troubling picture of our future...

As bad as this report card is bad, the reality is probably even worse, as 1 in 4 respondents admitted lying more than once on the anonymous survey.

Gee, I wonder whether these results have anything to do with the diminishing ethics of parents and other adult role models?
