MONEY & CHARACTER AMONG LIBERIAN YOUTH. The young generation of Liberia is experiencing a serious integrity crisis as dishonesty increases at a high-speed in a small country still struggling to rise above poverty. The clash between moral and money in Liberia is gaining prominence very fast as most young citizens continue to chase big pockets and purses in search of survival and better living condition. The struggle to hurriedly amass wealth and gain instant influence among Liberian youth is a common practice nowadays as most of them continue to sell their self-respect for just anything. This insistent attitude of compromising character for cash is so evident to an extent that it has given Liberia an unpleasant image among comity of nations. The campaign to bury uprightness and satisfy short-term goals has taken a center stage. This egoistic syndrome is infecting every stratum of our society and judging from existing reality, our nation is gradually turning into a belly-driven society where credibility no longer matters. A huge number of young comrades in Liberia have become professional beggars and gamblers due to their inability to invest more time to hard work. They get themselves involved with unethical ventures which undermine human dignity. It is difficult for good ideas to spring out from within them because they are always seeking gravy. They are not willing to make sacrifice and endure economic hardship for even one minute. As a result of this, they usually roam around like dying parasites busy hustling to survive. They have taken this indecent habit as a specialty and what is even more disgusting is that they go about slandering others just to accomplish their naked ambitions. They sometimes appear blameless, but they walk in the shadow of vagabonds and vagrants.
