She calls it a "deterioration of culture". But this country is suffering from 3rd stage moral cancer that will be terminal moral cancer if this country doesn't start electing religious, conservative leadership that we had in the 1950s.

The amount of materialism decadence these days is quite amazing also. Then again tens of millions of millennials and college-aged students sit in front of the TV or on photo-based social media sites for hours each day getting jealous of superficial materialistic behavior these days and surrender to clever advertising.

There was hardly any materalism in TV shows in the 1950s and 60s. Then again the advertising back then was mainly for bars of soap and coffee as opposed to the extreme decadence in advertising today.

It's quite amazing how terrible behavior is worshiped these days. There is widespread thuggish behavior all over urban America that was non-existant two generations ago.

It is amazing how trashy popular culture has become in general and how Los Angeles values like the Kardashians are what tens of millions of millennials emulate day in and day out.

She talks about the tv shows of the 1950s like Leave it to Beaver. Most of those shows were tight-knit families with good, wholesome values.

Never heard of Rachael nor do I care what she thinks especially if she’s touting I need religious spiritual leaders. The Kardashian’s are entertainment who truly cares?

Isn’t this same degradation we are experiencing into a vulgar, perverse, ignorant, banal, and violent culture, exactly how the fall of the Roman Empire happened?

People have become obsessed with posting their lives on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc. That's more of a problem than keeping up with the Kardashians.
