American Citizenship and Its Decline: The Disappearing Middle Class
Manage episode 444393062 series 3484000
On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss the shifting economic roots of the decline of citizenship before introducing Victor Davis Hanson.
Citizenship is rare in human history but essential to free government. Today, the constitutional rule of citizens in America is threatened by a new form of government, unaccountable to the people, in which power is held by a ruling class that seeks to transform our society. In this eight-lecture course, students will examine the origins and history of citizenship in the West and the grave challenges American citizenship faces today.
A large and self-sufficient middle class is essential to citizenship, as it prevents an unstable, binary society of rich and poor. The once thriving American middle class is now vanishing due to high debts, low wages, and government policies that trap citizens in a prolonged adolescence.
