John Schaar
40 Years Ago Alvin Toffler Had a Few Thoughts

“The latent causes of faction are thus sown in the nature of man… A zeal for different opinions concerning religion, concerning government, and many other points.”
James Madison, Federalist #10
The American Dream
“life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement, regardless of social class or circumstances of birth.” American Dream, James Truslow Adams, 1931
