Americans (or many of them) are nostalgic about the 1950s, where the economy was booming and wages were high.
The loss of that in the recent decades has triggered the 5 stages of grief.
- denial
- anger
- bargaining
- depression
- acceptance
America is currently in the second stage, anger, and that’s what causes Trump’s fury.
I’m already at acceptance.
I can’t fix this mess in any sort of short time span. I’m training the neighborhood kids to be empathetic. That’s the best I can do.
Im most certainly at depression. Denial was like the 90’s, anger the aughts, and bargaining in the teens.
