It's the hip hop and rap culture that is destroying the fabric of young America. It's not even music, it' crap. True rock and roll never disrespected anyone.

Oh yes, one song completely describes an entire culture made up of people from pretty much every country in the world. NO!!! It doesn't describe all Americans. It's just a phrase, like "sugar and spice and everything nice, that's what little girls are made of"... After hearing that, would you believe that little girls are actually made out of sugar? It has nothing to do with reality, just a phrase. OK? Anytime someone tries to generalize an entire culture with a saying or an idea, they are wrong and it is racism. The majority of Americans don't do drugs and many don't like rock-n-roll... I hope you aren't truly as foolish as your question is.

Yes and no. Sex is very obvious. Its everywhere. By "sex" i mean the image of sexiness. we don't have too many people out in the streets just rutting like hogs, but our advertisments would have you believe otherwise.
Drugs are a problem. Just as drinking is a problem for some countries. And "rock and roll" alas is no more, however the idea of a type of music that goes against the previous generations taste is still around.

Well, Yes it is....
if you want to see if a culture is good or not....
Just go back and read about thier origin, or how they formed...
Also, when the song said Rock n' Roll...
i believe it meant more that the music...
it also ment the money and the fake feeling of power....
and other stuff that you could say about america
But, i still believe that there is SOME good people in america...
Just a lil bit....

No. The American culture, in theory, accepts all lifestyle choices that do not cause harm to others.
Some consider the "Rock N' Roll" lifestyle a legitimate choice.
In practice, the puritan roots of the U.S. has resulted in the "vocal moral minority" of today. This group believes they have the right to dictate how others should choose to live.

Almost. Sex is more popular than ever; drugs are showing heavy support as far as legalization goes, but declining numbers of users; and "rock n' roll" has more or less been replaced by pop music and hip-hop, unfortunately.

Kinda but not really. The american culture is all about instant gratification...the "if it feels good, do it" philosophy. Your quote leaves out a huge component though...money.
