In many ways, despite the publicity, the US lags behind the modern world. A lot of people want us to stay in the 1950s.
Well, they want the bad stuff of the '50s, while bringing up the nostalgia of the good parts. Anyone notice how prevelent 1950s architecture is in new construction, especially fast food?More like the 1850s. The 1950s had a strong labor movement and high marginal tax rates.
