Is the biggest problem with America that we think we are worth more than we are?

I'm not big into political talk and don't follow it as closely as I should, but this seems to be the biggest problem to me.

From top to bottom, rich to poor, most people seem to think they and their children deserve more than they truly should. I won't go into much detail, just leave it a this simple question.

Agree.

The difference is that the responsible person gets what they EARN through hard work, ambition, and character.

The irresponsible try to seize it from others because they are lazy, do not want to work, lack personal responsibility, and want to blame others for their station in life.

One leads to success, one leads to failure. You choose.

America's problem is that we've grown fat and lazy because we've had it so good for so long that we don't apreciate it anymore. And because we are fat and lazy, many would prefer to stay at home and get crumbs from the gov. instead of work.

This plus the fact that as a whole, we are fat, stupid and lazy is a recipe for disaster.

Actually, no. The biggest problem is America, IMO, is our unhealthy lifestyles/obesity.
