The great American amnesia. Clever people and grocers weigh everything.We like to think we know how to calculate, but ask a college student what you get when you multiply six times seven and they'll say they haven't their calculator. I memorized multiplication tables, but it doesn't help cause the numbers keep lying. The stock market is artificially inflated. Kasimir Malevitch's famous painting The Black Square. MUSIC Andriana Coselotti, Larry Morey, Frank Churchill, Kathryn Beaumont
Few things can lift the spirits of the Saucy boys like a hard hittin' vigorous round of Beefin' with Meacham, and once again Jon “Soul of America” Meacham earns every haymaker we dish out. Our special guest this week is Gregory Downs, co-editor of the Civil War Era journal and history professor extraordinaire at UC Davis, who was recently featured in a New York Times story on the “monument wars.” Greg explains how he joined a group of colleagues to meet America's amnesia head-on by staging coordinated history demonstrations on actual sites of the nation's bloodiest war. From Gettysburg, PA to Elizabeth City, NC these historians rallied under the #wewantmorehistory hashtag for a multi-battlefield teach-in on the raw truth of slavery and the past America loves to mis-remember. Was Robert E. Lee really a southern gentleman, or a cruel and racist enslaver? Are confederate statues the depositories of history, or hateful symbols of domestic terrorism? And while we're at it, was the British Empire really great, or were they just better at destroying the evidence? Join the HAG team as we refuse to get our affairs in order before what might very well be the last presidential election in human history. Hold fast HAG fans, we'll see you on the other side of Episode 28: American Amnesia.

Bible News Radio for January 30, 2019 Today our special guest is Dr. Jerry Newcombe who has authored a new book called American Amnesia. n America, we have a problem of collective amnesia. God has blessed the United States of America perhaps more than any other nation before us. Yet, while basking in the blessing, we have forgotten that the hand of God made us a nation. Like someone long asleep, like a collective Rip Van Winkle, we must wake up from our futile dreams. Our future depends on America rising from its fatal forgetfulness, and remembering the Godly principles expressed in so many of our founding documents and general literature, which are the bedrock of this great nation. Can remembering God's role in American history bring us to a spiritual awakeninga great revival, leading to a national reformation that can spare us from our nations apparent death spiral? American Amnesia is a collection of essays written in the last several years by author, radio and television host, and TV producer Jerry Newcombe, D.Min., focusing on God and government, on the American experiment, current society, and church and state matters. Newcombe possesses two unique resources, one material and one a special gift. Through his many interviews, he has garnered a unique and valuable collection of first-hand quotes from many prominent leaders of our day. Then, with skills honed in his longtime media and publishing work with Dr. D. James Kennedy Ministries, Dr. Newcombe sheds a bright light on our current events by drawing us consistently back to the basic principles of America's founding. From his study of original source documents, he brings an almost unparalleled knowledge of early America. With his help, we can see our moment of history unfolding through the lens of Biblical truth. Standing against forces intending to undermine God's plan for humanity in society, American Amnesia is the antidote for a nation's forgetfulness.

Jacob Hacker is a professor of political science at Yale University and Director of the Institution for Social and Policy Studies. He is co-author of the bestselling book Winner-Take-All Politics: How Washington Made the Rich Richer and Turned Its Back on the Middle Class. He is a developer of the Economic Security Index (ESI), which measures the share of Americans who experience at least a 25 percent decline in their income from one year to the next, and his 2007 plan "Health Care for America" became a template for several presidential candidates' health care reform proposals. In his latest book, American Amnesia, written with Paul Pierson, he argues that the vital link between business and government has frayed, and along with it, the American record of social advancement and prosperity.
The mixed economy was the most important social innovation of the twentieth century. It spread a previously unimaginable level of prosperity and enabled steep increased in education, health, and economic security. And yet, extraordinarily, it is anathema to many current economic and political elites. Like every other prospering democracy, the U.S. developed a mixed economy that channeled the spirit of capitalism intro strong growth and health social development. In this bargain, government and business were as much partners as rivals. But, according to Jacob Hacker and Paul Pierson's new book,American Amnesia, what's good for business and what's good for Americans has become misaligned. As anti-government advocates of free market fundamentalism have gained power, they are bent on scrapping the instrument of a century of unprecedented economic and social progress.
