Why America Failed: The Roots of Imperial Decline

Morris Berman · ★★★☆☆ · 256 pages · 2002

The book could be more thought of as why does capitalism a problem. It covers that aspect quite well and it would seem that the core which he covers about America is actually a small core of his overall message about capitalism.

What is wrong with capitalism? The problem seems that it encourages a fast life of never ending progress it hout ever reflecting what the overall progresses for. For what end is the progress? What's the Ed goal in mind. There is none. No spirituality no morality.

The authors essential explanation is that america suffers a lot from this because there is no moral undertone to it. Other cultures have that. America the progress is god. And it hassled to an SUVs them mentality.
