The Gilded Age was in middle of the last Great Reset There have been many Great Resets, so yes history does repeat itself to a certain extent The Great Depression was the end of the last Great Reset The Great Depression spanned ten years In that span, people don't realize, or weren't taught in school, that over twelve million American citizens died due to malnutrition/starvation When history repeats itself, given today's population the number of casualties would be Biblical

History is not repeating itself The difference is during the guilded age the poor people were willing to work hard Today they just expect it to be given to them Big difference

You might want to consider shortening the title of your book It's not exactly catchy
Comment from : MB

Teddy Roosevelt said, “society has no business to permit degenerates to reproduce their kind” Luther Burbank said one should “stop permitting criminals and weaklings to reproduce” George Bernard Shaw said that only eugenics could save mankind Of course, there was overt Dimokkkrat racism in this movement The Rockefeller Foundation was so enthusiastic that even after the center of the eugenics effort moved to Germany and involved the gassing of individuals from mental institutions, it continued to finance German researchers at a very high level Since the 1920s, American eugenicists had been jealous because the Germans had taken leadership of the movement away from them The Germans were admirably progressive Leftist/Dimokkkrat Racism has always been considered an unremarkable aspect of the effort to attain a marvelous goal – the improvement of humankind in the future

Hard to believe there was a time when there were Republican reformers on the national level It lasted up till the late 1960s/ early 1970s There were liberal and conservative wings of both major political parties Now there are just moderate to liberal Democrats on the one hand and conservative to delusional Republicans on the other
Comment from : KINDNESS FIRST

Giving away money does not mean a robber baron was not ruthless and corrupt A great rich man worth admiring was George Eastman (founder of Kodak) Among other things he donated the money for most of what is now MIT in Cambridge , Massechusetts But under the condition that his identity be kept secret He also built hospitals and schools He ended up killing himself due to untreatable sever back pain His will left all his fortune to charity

This is completely rubbish and bullshit The autor of this video should go back and live before this age happened in history
Comment from : Rafael Conceição

You could apply the same commentary to our era! The only major difference is that American influence abroad is declining instead of expanding and is facing fierce international competition namely with China and Asia as a whole (economically) and Russia (military)

Please stop imaging the state and capital as discrete entities in the market It’s bad political-economy
Comment from : Ike_Ike

This history represents a single race of men at the height of their corruption To label this as the high point in America's history and accept it as that can only be rationalized if the antithesis is perpetuataly ignored Oppression at its height Racism at its height Apartheid at its height

Comment from : nialacree

Very interesting, I was sort of aware of this periode in American history , but I never knew what to call America's mini version of the industrial revolution I sense a lot of historians put a bigger importance on FDR'S new deal or post ww2 USA as the cataclysm for its development

Comment from : Mutombo

such a fascinating period not just in US history but world history The height of dispersion of peoples to North America was a global changing event brPlease do a video for the roaring 1920s 🙏
Comment from : bruh_haha

you omitted a lot of ‘immigrants’ and where they come from not all of them were ‘immigrants’ they were slaves brought into the US to replace black people after the civil war they didn’t voluntarily move to the US one example is Chinese peoples who later turned into Chinese Americans as they settled in the 1900s century this doc does not cover all surface level info :/ this is inaccurate

Comment from : Midlife and Nailing It

As much as I admire the past as a historian, understand the vast inequalities I understand there's still much to learn from the past But at least even if I am poor I have medical basic insurance, unemployment, my children don't have to work from 12 years old, women have the right to vote, theres workers compensation if you get injured within a job, theres a law that's stablishes how many hours should one work including brakes, oportunity to education if one takes the advantage of it At least as a woman I am happy I live in this century There's so many other countries that dont have the basic needs It's not about politics, it's about basic human rights

The Sackler family of today also made great philanthropic contributions brbrHowever, they are the ones who created hundreds of thousands of deaths and millions of drug addictions from pushing their drug OxyContin through their company, Purdue Pharma, making trillion dollar profitsbrbrThese are not people to be admiredbrbrThese are people to scorn, ignore and make sure they never have control over the government brbrSadly, exactly that has happened Or rather continues to happen
Comment from : SEG

These wealthy businessman were not important men, they were simply the greediest of greed in society at that time as they are todaybrbrThey are not people to look up to and admire
Comment from : SEG

The major resource was NOT industry … the major resource was slave laborbrbrEven though slavery no longer existed the same people were paid little to nothing often timesbrbrThe same is happening today where minimum wages should be $25 an hr if income kept pace with the cost of livingbrbrIn other countries flipping burgers at McDonald’s pays $23 an hr … not managers … but entry level positions
