We are actually witness to an historic cultural confrontation and clash taking place in the USA.  On one side we have the fulsome expression of the post-Nietzsche ethic of narcissistic, larcenous greed which, ironically, often espouses an ersatz, evangelical religious creed as cover.  On the other we have the fading framework of Judeo-Christian values which has been the foundation of most of our institutions for the past few centuries.

As one example of that, we have in Canada a government structure in the Westminster Parliamentary mode that, as a condition of operating properly, depends on the "honour" of its members.  Except "honour" has long since vanished from the scene, leaving us with a sort of "winner takes all the spoils" autocracy.

Ultimately, this must inevitably degenerate into an "everyone for themselves" ethic.
