MATERIALISM

As a substitute for love, affection and companionship, they gave their
children the things of materialism. The parents of the children of the last
25 years abdicated their roles in the nurturing of their children, placing
money and materialism as an end in itself.

As a result, the children have turned to drugs. The colleges of our nation,
along with the omnipresent ghettos, are the scene of this drug abuse.

Everyone is "cool.'' But what is "cool"? It's lost in the crowd in the
mentality of the herd and, most importantly, the inability to think for
oneself.
