Americans Don't Like the Direction of Country

A new CBS/New York Times poll (of course we really trust them to tell the truth) reported that 81% of Americans think that this country is "going in the wrong direction". Now let's assume for a minute that the report is accurate. Why do we have such a poor attitude in our country right now? The poll shows that the economy is the most important issue in the political world also. It seems that moral & spiritual issues are hardly even on the map. If this is true about what is first in the hearts & minds of Americans then it is no wonder the country is going in the wrong direction. You would think with all the work everyone has been doing to build each others self-esteem that we would all be content. But I guess the problem is really with everyone else & not me. We need to take a look in the Bible at Matthew 5:25-34 to regain our perspective on what will get us back in the right direction.
Here is the news link for that poll:
