societal problems

I got to watch just about the entire Roger Clemens doposition while I was at an event for work today. I have never seen two people so blatantly lie. Anyone watching it can see that both were guilty of perjury but both are so unbelievable it makes aanything either says uncredible. I cant understand why these guys wont admit to it and explain that this is how they were attempting to be successful. This comes down to a social problem more than a sports problem. People do WHATEVER is necessary to be successful. Often this is seen as the only way to be successful. The only thing that can be done is to change the meaning of success, give people hope in something other then what doesn't really fill or bring whatever feeling they were desiring. It is a never ending spiral to desire what we cant have, get it, and then the bar is just set higher because the reality didnt meet expectation. Maybe our expectations are just too low and we dont understand what the real desire should be
