Good article.
I recall reading a story as a child about Eisenhower. At twelve, he almost lost his leg. If it weren’t for the stubbornness of his brother, the doctor would have amputated it.
How history would have turned out differently.
In the 1950s, we could easily gone back to New Deal policies but didn’t. We could have gone to a version of national health care but didn’t. We could have had a big war but didn’t. We could have had extensive racial violence but didn’t.
All things considered, we did alright. We prospered.
