Dogs.

Editor,

Furthering one's "own undisclosed financial interest while purporting to act in the interest of others" underlines how thoroughly corrupted American society has become.

Words like "honor" and "integrity" are marketing slogans sharpies use to manipulate naive rubes into spending, or worse investing, their hard-earned dollars in what every seller knows is garbage.

Individuals who actually do conduct themselves with honor and integrity are suckers whom the selfish, greedy slobs who run our rapidly crumbling world exploit for all that they can squeeze out of them.

Americans have become so busy looking out for number one we have become a nation of dogs: eating weaker dogs and being eaten by stronger ones; a pathetic excuse for a superpower.
