Virtually throughout its history, and certainly in the 20th century, california has been known as the place to go for dynamism and growth. it did not become the richest, most populous, and most productive state solely because of its weather and natural resources. so it takes a lot to turn california around from growth to contraction, from people moving into the state to a net exodus from the state, from business moving into california to businesses leaving california. it takes some doing. and the left has done it.

More From Dennis Prager

Given that the nineteenth century was the century of socialism, of liberalism, and of democracy, it does not necessarily follow that the twentieth century must also be a century of socialism, liberalism and democracy: political doctrines pass, but humanity remains, and it may rather be expected that this will be a century of authority ... a century of fascism. for if the nineteenth century was a century of individualism it may be expected that this will be the century of collectivism and hence the century of the state.

There's this indian fellow who worked out a cycle like the idea of stone-age, bronze-age, only he did it on an indian one. the cycle goes from nothing until now and 20th century and then on and right around the cycle until the people are really grooving and then just sinks back into ignorance until it gets back into the beginning again. so the 20th century is a fraction of that cycle, and how many of those cycles has it done yet? it's done as many as you think and all these times it's been through exactly the same things, and it'll be this again.
Ignorance Thinking Ideas
Until the left took over american public education in the second half of the 20th century, it was generally excellent - look at the high level of eighth-grade exams from early in the 20th century and you will weep. the more money the left has gotten for education - america now spends more per student than any country in the world - the worse the academic results. and the left has removed god and dress codes from schools - with socially disastrous results.
Country School America
One of the great drivers of the alienation that has made donald trump possible is that the growth in the american economy has been weak. in the decade from 2005 to 2015, there was not one year when the us hit three per cent growth. and to the extent there's been growth, virtually all of it has been collected by the top 10 per cent of the population. obviously, if we knew how to make growth faster, we would. we don't. and it's very difficult to make growth more broadly shared. because it's not just the us that has this problem.
Growth Problem Weak
The different american experience of the 20th century is crucial because the lesson of the century for europe, which essentially is that the human condition is tragic, led it to have a build a welfare system and a set of laws and social arrangements that are more prophylactic than idealistic. it's not about building perfect futures; it's about preventing terrible pasts. i think that is something that europeans in the second half of the 20th century knew in their bones and americans never did, and it's one of the big differences between the two western cultures.
Past Thinking Perfect

Adolescence as the time when an individual ‘recapitulates’ the savage stage of the race’s past.
Past Race Savages
The average mind is slow in grasping a truth, but when the most thoroughly organized, centralized institution, maintained at an excessive national expense, has proven a complete social failure, the dullest must begin to question its right to exist. the time is past when we can be content with our social fabric merely because it is "ordained by divine right," or by the majesty of the law.
