Illustrator edges look jagged

I just want to start off by saying this randomly happened one day, and I can't figure out how to fix it. Every shape I draw, live trace, or paste into Illustrator has a jagged edge to it. The shapes are not set with a charcoal brush definition, there are no styles set on any of these shapes, and the documents are all set up as high res. The kicker, is that if I copy and paste the shape into InDesign or any other program, the shape looks perfectly crisp like it should. The shapes even print out crisp when printing directly from Illustrator. This is really starting to get on my last nerve, I just want to see the shapes how they should appear. Has anyone run into this problem before and know how to fix it? There has to be something that I'm either missing or doing wrong.

Below is a sample of what I'm referencing. HELP!
