And the Greatest Generation, who saved democracy and made the ground fertile for boomer politics and economics.

The populace, by and large, take it for granted that the country works.
They don't realize just how good they have it.

They had little civics education about how democracy requires involvement and how important it is. They haven't learned that we protect the rights of others so that our own rights may be protected.
