[Dialogue] A difficult article

[Janice Ulangca]

The link below is to a very sobering interview with Morris Berman, author of several books on American culture.  Calls for a revolution in values which he doesn't see as possible.  This was forwarded to a group working on Awakening the Dreamer - Changing the Dream events.  The article does call for changing the "American dream" away from hustling to get more and more - and more than anybody else.  I find Mitt Romney eloquent on the subject of everybody getting more and more.

Is what Berman says true?  How would the values he sees in the USA compare to Christian values (of the RS1 variety)?  I wish Berman had said more about change "to what - and clues to how to get there" - perhaps his books do.  I'd like to think he's wrong, but I don't think he is.
