The Inequality Hoax

Americans should be forgiven if they are suffering from a condition that might be called “crisis overload.” After all, thanks mostly to liberals and progressives, they have had to deal with an unending series of crises over the past many decades, beginning in the 1960s with the “poverty crisis” and an “urban crisis,” followed in the 1970s and 1980s by the “environmental crisis,” the “energy crisis,” and the “homeless crisis.” Later, once again thanks to progressives, Americans were asked to confront the “health care crisis” and the civilization-threatening “global warming crisis.”
