You speak from the heart with your words. We are brothers in spirit. However, I would go so far as to say that this phenomenon is not just specific to one country. I've travelled all over the world and I can tell you that I've noticed this foul smell of decay in societies all over the world. It's people who have lost respect for their own kind.
If one planet says: "You look bad, what's wrong with you?" Says the other: "I'm sick - I have Homo sapiens." The first planet laughs: "I had that too, it'll pass quickly and you'll feel better again." 😉
