I've seen many. The two most prominent extremes of my lifetime have been:
A time when the nation as a whole was united in a common cause that would determine their fate.
A time when they are so divided that the diversity could destroy them.
The first extreme was during WWII.
The second extreme is right now.
The first one was understandable.
The second is not.
The first one came on the heels of another national disaster better known as the great depression.
The second one comes on the heels of our greatest expansion in creativity that resulted in lavish lifestyles.
The first one came when overall we couldn't have had things worse.
The second one came when overall we'd never had times better.
Go figure.
