How did we become ugly America? Not all Americans, or even a majority but enough that our society and the world has no escape from their megaphone. Alpha males unbound by civility, facts or rules.

Is it curable, containable, reversible? Can we agree on what is ugly - I'd nominate the "me-centric"; those with an expectation of being owed, I believe I deserve and 'other's don't (some just by birthright and feel they've been wronged.) Ugly souls, at the alter of Me.
