The Baby Boom Births Year

Did America’s post-war economy further social and economic opportunity for Americans?

Discussion questions Any major changes/ continuities you noticed today? Did today’s inquiry change how you view the US as a land of opportunity today? Do you think ensuring opportunity is more the responsibility of the individual or of society? Why is poverty, as Harrington calls it, “invisible”?

A burgeoning private sector, continued federal spending, the baby boom, and technological developments helped spur economic growth, middle-class suburbanization, social mobility, a rapid expansion of higher education, and the rise of the “Sun Belt” as a political and economic force
