Anyone knows James Gordinier's book?

Boomers and Silents also hate this book because it advocates saving oneself for retirement and undoing the New Deal, as well as a hard and fast return to capitalism.

Well, we've tried that answer, and it worked great for some people but horribly for most.  The capitalist wave of the last 40 years is now a complete cycle, with younger retirees the complete product of this plan.  The top 10% of earners did OK, though only the top ~2% really benefitted in full.  I call that a failure by any rational measure.  BTW, I'm a beneficiary, so this isn't sour grapes on my part.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
