In their publication, Phillip Longman and Ray Boshara show how today's progressives have much to learn from their counterparts of 100 years ago. The original progressives built super-majorities in both celebrations and achieved stunning reforms by incorporating scientific skills with deep deference to all-American worth, particularly those of freedom-loving, small-scale internet marketers and producers. A lot of their program we must reject today, yet Americans at the flip of the last century confronted issues so eerily like our own that their experience provides many useful lessons. More so than during the New Package, the major problems of the Intensifying era included a globalized overall economy, predatory consumer loaning, deepening income inequality, rapidly shifting demographics, sites of violent non-state stars, an unhealthy and ineffective health care system, transportation bottle necks, a tainted food resource, a deepening risk of contagious diseases, and a distributing awareness of the necessity for thrift, conservation and behavioral change. Longman and Boshara maintain that if modern-day Progressives are to triumph over America's deep political divisions, they will have to give attention to building the strength of the family, local communities and small-scale institutions, including small-scale banking companies and producer sites empowered with new infrastructure.
