<p>As long as we are drawing breath, there is always an opportunity <a href="https://amzn.to/2I2SCT5">to turn things around</a>.  That is true for individuals, and it is also true for our entire nation.  But if we continue running toward evil, it is only a matter of time before exceedingly painful consequences overtake us.</p>
<p>The following are 40 facts that prove that America&#8217;s moral collapse is spinning wildly out of control&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>#1</strong> America has killed <a href="https://www.lifenews.com/2018/01/18/60069971-abortions-in-america-since-roe-v-wade-in-1973/">more than 60 million children</a> since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973.  The federal government endorses this activity by heavily funding the country&#8217;s leading abortion provider, and after that abortion provider harvests the organs of the dead children, the federal government also <a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/aborted-baby-parts-are-being-grafted-on-to-mice-in-bizarre-scientific-experiments-and-the-u-s-government-is-paying-for-it">heavily funds</a> the research that is conducted on those harvested organs.</p>
<p><strong>#2</strong> According to a Quinnipiac University poll from last year, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/02/politics/quinnipiac-roe-v-wade-poll/index.html">63 percent</a> of all Americans want to keep Roe v. Wade in place.</p>
<p><strong>#3</strong> America is a global leader in sexual depravity.  If you doubt this, just check out what is going on <a href="https://www.wnd.com/2019/04/convention-at-major-u-s-hotels-showcases-extreme-sexual-depravity/">in Cleveland</a> at the end of this month.</p>
<p><strong>#4</strong> Americans are now more likely to die <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-6591245/Americans-likely-die-opioid-overdose-car-crash-report-reveals.html">from an opioid overdose</a> than they are from a car accident.</p>
<p><strong>#5</strong> In the city of Baltimore, approximately <a title="one out of every four babies" href="https://www.axios.com/the-youngest-victims-of-the-opioid-epidemic-7531ccf5-9ec4-431a-bb1e-991fc2fb0364.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">one out of every four babies</a> is born as an opioid addict.</p>
<p><strong>#6</strong> Overdosing on drugs has now become <a title="the leading cause of death" href="http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/u-s-life-expectancy-is-falling-and-the-2-biggest-reasons-why-will-absolutely-stun-you" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the leading cause of death</a> for Americans under the age of 50.</p>
<p><strong>#7</strong> McDonalds feeds approximately 70 million people a day globally. Pornhub gets <a title="more than 78 million visits" href="https://www.patheos.com/blogs/chorusinthechaos/porn-slowly-killing-evangelicalism/?utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=share_bar&amp;fbclid=IwAR20XPyn5upQw_9Wx7lm_2k6g4QQwRDK-cKhiHzruE1QinKHvVXF4n1CUf4#t8rTaDPZIXVZegSx.01" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">more than 78 million visits</a> a day.</p>
<p><strong>#8</strong> The teen birth rate in the United States is higher <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22792555">&#8220;than in any other industrialized country in the world&#8221;</a>.</p>
<p><strong>#9</strong> According <a title="to the New York Times" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/29/health/chlamydia-syphilis-gonorrhea.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">to the CDC</a>, approximately 110 million Americans have a sexually-transmitted disease right now.</p>
<p><strong>#10</strong> The CDC also tells us that there are approximately <a href="https://globalgrind.cassiuslife.com/1944089/cdc-says-us-highest-rates-stds-stats-in-world-details/">20 million new sexually transmitted disease cases</a> in the U.S. every single year.</p>
<p><strong>#11</strong> The number of married couples with children in the U.S. <a title="just reached a 56-year low" href="https://www.cnsnews.com/commentary/terence-p-jeffrey/number-married-couples-kids-hit-56-year-low" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">just reached a 56 year low</a>.</p>
<p><strong>#12</strong> According to the United Nations Population Fund, <a title="40 percent" href="https://www.faithwire.com/2018/10/23/survey-almost-half-of-american-births-happen-outside-of-marriage/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">40 percent</a> of all births in the U.S. now happen outside of marriage. But if you go back to 1970, that figure was sitting at just 10 percent.</p>
<p><strong>#13</strong> At this point, approximately <a title="one out of every three children" href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/27-facts-that-prove-that-the-family-in-america-is-in-the-worst-shape-ever" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one out of every three children</a> in the United States lives in a home without a father.</p>
<p><strong>#14</strong> <a title="about one-fourth" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarceration_in_the_United_States" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Approximately one-fourth</a> of the entire global prison population is in the United States.</p>
<p><strong>#15</strong> By the time an American child reaches the age of 18, that child will have seen approximately <a title="40,000 murders" href="http://www.parentstv.org/ptc/publications/reports/stateindustryviolence/main.asp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">40,000 murders</a> on television.</p>
<p><strong>#16</strong> According to a study conducted by the Mayo Clinic, nearly <a title="70 percent" href="http://www.mayoclinic.org/news2013-rst/7543.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">70 percent</a> of all Americans are on at least one prescription drug.  An astounding 20 percent of all Americans are on at least five prescription drugs.</p>
<p><strong>#17</strong> According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, doctors in the United States write <a title="more than 250 million prescriptions" href="http://www.wnd.com/2014/02/70-million-americans-taking-mind-altering-drugs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">more than 250 million prescriptions</a> for antidepressants each year.</p>
<p><strong>#18</strong> <a title="Over half a million people" href="http://themostimportantnews.com/archives/more-than-half-a-million-people-americas-homelessness-crisis-is-rapidly-exploding-on-both-coasts">Over half a million people</a> are homeless in the United States right now, but more cities than ever are passing laws <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/illegal-feed-criminalizing-homeless-america-782861">making it illegal to feed them</a>.</p>
<p><strong>#19</strong> One recent study found that the average American spends <a title="86 hours a month" href="http://themostimportantnews.com/archives/watch-what-happens-when-a-baby-that-is-addicted-to-a-cellphone-has-it-taken-away">86 hours a month</a> on a cell phone.</p>
<p><strong>#20</strong> A different study found that one-third of all American teenagers <a title="haven’t read a single book in the past year" href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/35067/study-third-teens-havent-read-book-year-just-2-joseph-curl?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=051717-news&amp;utm_campaign=dwtwitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">haven’t read a single book in the past year</a>.</p>
<p><strong>#21</strong> Americans are obsessed with material things and are willing to go deep into debt to get what they want.  At this point, <a title="480 million credit cards" href="https://www.bloombergquint.com/onweb/u-s-credit-card-debt-closed-2018-at-a-record-870-billion#gs.x9SJkulr" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">480 million credit cards</a> are in circulation in this country. That number has risen by <a title="nearly 13 percent" href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/personalfinance/2019/03/12/national-debt-rises-the-next-financial-crisis-may-be-your-own/3102507002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">nearly 13 percent</a> since 2015.</p>
<p><strong>#22</strong> 37 million credit card accounts in the U.S. are <a href="http://themostimportantnews.com/archives/deadbeat-nation-37-million-credit-card-accounts-in-the-u-s-are-seriously-delinquent-right-now">&#8220;seriously delinquent&#8221;</a> at this moment.</p>
<p><strong>#23</strong> According to a study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, <a title="approximately two-thirds" href="http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/story/2012-08-16/cdc-oral-sex/57079768/1?csp=hf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">approximately two-thirds</a> of all Americans in the 15 to 24-year-old age bracket have engaged in oral sex.</p>
<p><strong>#24</strong> It has been reported that <a title="one out of every four" href="http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2008-03-11-std_n.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one out of every four</a> teen girls in the U.S. has at least one sexually transmitted disease.</p>
<p><strong>#25</strong> It has been estimated that <a title="30 percent" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2127201/Porn-site-Xvideos-worlds-biggest-4bn-hits-month-30-web-traffic-porn.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">30 percent</a> of all Internet traffic now goes to adult websites.</p>
<p><strong>#26</strong> According to the Pentagon, <a title="71 percent" href="https://wjla.com/news/nation-world/why-the-us-military-is-on-the-brink-of-a-recruitment-crisis" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">71 percent</a> of our young adults are ineligible to serve in the U.S. military because they are either too dumb, too fat or have a criminal background.</p>
<p><strong>#27</strong> The city of San Francisco handed out a total of <a title="5.8 million free syringes" href="https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-02-04/2-million-syringes-still-missing-san-franciscos-drug-addicts-outnumber-high-school" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">5.8 million free syringes</a> to drug addicts in 2018.</p>
<p><strong>#28</strong> During one seven day stretch last summer, a total of <a title="16,000 complaints" href="http://themostimportantnews.com/archives/16000-complaints-about-human-feces-have-been-made-to-the-city-of-san-francisco-over-the-last-7-days" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">16,000 official complaints</a> were submitted to the city of San Francisco about piles of human feces littering the streets.</p>
<p><strong>#29</strong> When you include unfunded liabilities, the true size of our national debt is <a href="http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/the-true-size-of-the-u-s-national-debt-including-unfunded-liabilities-is-222-trillion-dollars">222 trillion dollars</a>.  What we are doing to future generations of Americans is beyond criminal.</p>
<p><strong>#30</strong> The suicide rate in the United States is up <a title="34 percent" href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/if-america-is-such-a-happy-place-why-is-the-suicide-rate-up-34-since-the-year-2000" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">34 percent</a> since the year 2000.</p>

<p><strong>#32</strong> We are literally destroying the planet that we have been given.  It is being projected that the total amount of plastic in the oceans of the world will exceed the total weight of all fish <a title="by the year 2050" href="https://www.earthday.org/2018/04/05/fact-sheet-plastics-in-the-ocean/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">by the year 2050</a>.</p>

<p><strong>#35</strong> <a title="About one-third" href="http://www.operationrescue.org/about-abortion/abortions-in-america/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">About one-third</a> of all American women will have had an abortion by the age of 45.</p>
<p><strong>#36</strong> Approximately 3,000 Americans lost their lives as a result of the destruction of the World Trade Center towers <a title="on 9/11" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_September_11_attacks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on 9/11</a>.  Every single day, more than 3,000 American babies are killed by abortion when you include all forms of abortion.</p>
<p><strong>#37</strong> One very shocking study found that <a title="86 percent" href="http://www.bpnews.net/bpnews.asp?id=32127" target="_blank" rel="noopener">86 percent</a> of all abortions are done for the sake of convenience.</p>
<p><strong>#38</strong> An average of more than 100 churches are dying in the United States <a href="http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/between-6000-and-10000-churches-in-the-u-s-are-dying-each-year-and-that-means-that-over-100-will-die-this-week">every single week</a>.</p>
