Neil Howe: It’s going to get worse; more financial crises coming

[Eric the Green]

In the Awakening, criticism of "institutions" was directly largely at corporations as well as government policies such as constant war. So the Reagan counter-revolution was not so much a continuation of that, as the use of slogans to deceive people to support authority (corporations). "Individualism" consisted of letting big corporations do whatever they want to us. Taxes were reduced mainly for rich people. This has created the unequal economy that we have now. Gen X grew up deceived by the slogans, as well as left to fend for themselves by preoccupied parents in childhood. So this false "individualism" continues to run our government, through Republican obstruction.

I'm not worried about rich "individuals" having to pay more, and do not consider this "authoritarian."
