About this listen

 In this book I examine America's move from relative rationalism to extreme irrationalism, beginning in about 1980, in particular in the development of a social welfare state. The effort to stop what had feebly begun in the 1960's in the Great Society had seemed to become the main mission of the dominant forces in American culture, seeing any mass programs to improve America's lives as being socialism and un-American. It can be argued that this is still the main mission of mass American politics here in 2025. Popular Culture Social Sciences
