What has the MTV/Reality generation done to perpetuate our downfall as a society?

Both Culturally and Economically have we lost our damn minds?

Update:

Gregory~ Your smugness speaks volumes about your charecter. "never happens" Society as a whole has fallen many many times if it hadn't you might well be speaking German or Italian right now and not on Y!Answers speaking of your ineptness in answering a simple question about your society!

    Culturally it has contributed a lot. People these days enjoy watching scripted shows that aren't really scripted. It's fake, which is a metaphor for what a lot of society is nowadays, FAKE. I don't watch MTV at all anymore. I'm more an E! guy..

    What's go-ing on out on the floor?? I love this record baby, but I can't see straight anymore. KKeep, it cool. What's the name of this club?? I can't remember but it's alright, oh alright. JUST DANCE.

    People have been predicting the downfall of society because of <some thing they don't approve of> for a long as there's been any form of society that could be talked about.

    It never happens. Learn some history and stop complaining.

    besides existing?

    everything, its like a never ending soap opera of mind numbing "reality shows" that continue to provide halfassed role models and idols for future generations to fawn over and strive to become.

    meatheads, token black people and spoiled white girls.

    god bless america!!!

    LMAO! at the first answer... that would suck if that happened.

    But yeah, it's just trash, and it's like the producers just make them keep doing trashy things for ratings and it's all so pointless and has no value to your mind.

    =) yup.

    I go to UW-Madison and the newest show is College Life. I actually know one of the cast members on the show. She puts down my best friend on national TV.
