We should beware of any advice hearkining us back to a past filled with racism, sexism, starvation and genocide. It was no golden age for most people in the United States. We are in 250 years of a grand experiment, can a pan-ethnic country based on immigration and secular democracy endure? In the past we have been able to reset, sometimes violently, to keep the wheels turning. It is always an open question if it can endure, or if we collapse into a plethora of ethnostates like most of the world.
