"In healthy societies, people live their lives within a galaxy of warm
places. They are members of a family, neighborhood, school, civic
organization, hobby group, company, faith, regional culture, nation,
continent and world. Each layer of life is nestled in the others to form
a varied but coherent whole.
"But starting just after World War
II, America’s community/membership mindset gave way to an
individualistic/autonomy mindset. The idea was that individuals should
be liberated to live as they chose, so long as they didn’t interfere
with the rights of others."
