Are the majority of Americans now common rather than classy?

Look at photographs from the 30's and 40's. Almost everyone was well dressed, usually wearing suits in the large cities. I've seen pictures of people in soup lines in the depression - in coat and tie. We've gone from jazz, classical, bossa nova, and blues music to Justin Bieber. Fast food has largely replace fine dining. Other than black Americans, who seem to have retained a sense of style and grace, no one dresses decently for church. A refined sense of British style would do this country some good.

It's a depressing thought. I wish we still dressed/acted like they did back then.

Everything seems like it was more glamorous.

We also burn flags without consulting our elder sages; so not just common, but trashy!

I agree, only peasants wear collarless shirts and shorts in public.

We definitely need to be more refined like the British. LINK

I agree with almost all of the first responses.

Cheap Chinese imports have ruined style - most Sperry shoes are made in China.

We engage in too much trashy behavior.

The news media covers "who is gay," Justin Bieber, and today's racial issue of the day rather than real news.

While I am of Indian descent, I spent a great portion of my life in the UK.

We can't even put jeans on to wear on an airplane. We wear our fricking pajamas. How lazy are we?

That's because Whites are paying for the clothes that blacks are wearing. We can't afford to buy good clothes.

Don't worry, I saw on the news this morning that Bieber is retiring.
