I looked at the wikipedia site. the author you mentioned is on there. It has a section on the book mentioned above. It looks like a good book. It is interesting how he argues how America's self-interest are similar to Germany's Weimer Republic before Adolf Hitler became the leader. I am surprised to see that a guy who would write a book like that would have been taught by the same guy(Leo Strauss) who taught the people who served in the Bush Administration(Richard pearle) Irvin Kristol, another bloom student was a big influence in the Bush administration.

Read the book in college for Western Civilization class. It was indeed an excellent book. It makes me want to purchase the book and read it again to see how accurate his predictions have become. He really hammered on modern America and higher education.

1 up I read that book years ago. It was an eye opener. Especially the last chapter. He illustrated how America was doing the things in the same manner as what was going on in Germany shortly prior to Hitler rising to power. Bloom's book was written in the 1980s and his predictions are eerily coming to pass. You can probably find something on him on wikipedia

^^^I am glad there are a few intelligent people on here. I read The Closing of the American mind in college as a political science requirement. As liberal as colleges are in America, I was surprised to see that I would be required to read something like that. Looking back I am not surprised, but back then I was. Allen Bloom' ideals was a conservative, but he identified with no conservative movements. Probably because of the faults in the thinking of either party. At least by his perspective. You can google Bloom and read exerpts about him.

^^^That's my point, dumbass. Corporations grow voting blocks by using lobbyists to pay off Democrats and Republicans. But morons like you actually believe political parties such as the Republicans are for the corporations and corporations are for the best interests of the American fabric. Corporations are not into supporting the American fabric. They are for the global fabric, which involves going anywhere in the world to find the lowest wages at your expense. Remember when Mexico was the big place for corporate investment along the Mexican/American border? Many of those factories are leaving Mexico and moving to Vietnam and China-Communist countries. Your American corporations have no allegience to America except when they convince gullable people like you through their advertisments. Ignorant people like you need to read the book by Allen Bloom called The Closing of the American Mind.

Dems are wanting the government to give them stuff. It's all about what they can free load. Rep just want the government to get the hell out of the way and get this country back on track. Dem's got this country in trouble and are to stupid to know it. If this country had an earth quack like japan could we rebuild with this debt or would we be a third would country.

Get it repainted a different color and keep it parked in a garage if you have one. Repo guys cannot enter your garage unless you let them in.

I feel the same way. We're losing our beautiful home that we worked so hard for! We've owned 3 homes with our bank and never ONCE was late on a payment in 24 years and last year my husband was let go from his job of almost 30 years when the big 3 auto plants went down. Now we're screwed, I can't make enough to support the family and we have until this winter to get out. This is our home we have cleaned and fixed up for the last 12 years. It sucks to think that some jack ass bank is going to take it back and sell it to someone else for a fraction of what we were trying to pay for it! Something is VERY wrong here. We wanted a change but the change we got SUCKS!

I'm the republican hater. Yes, I admit democratic politicians are not perfect and this country is inherently corrupt, but the dems at least have standards for minimum wage, work safety, workers rights, health ins. for all, fair taxation.... Working people that vote for republicans haven't got the sense they were born with because they have been brainwashed with propaganda and lies. Divide and conquer indeed. I'm convinced, the republican machine is PURE EVIL.

1 up; Yeah, I bet you are a democrat. 2 up; Democrats have not done anything for us either. They are every bit as responsible as the Republicans for the United States losing its #1 superpower status. To the Op. I know exactly what it is like to be in your position. I went through a divorce and lost everything I worked for. It has taken me years just to get to the point where I have a little money at the end of the month. Many times my Low Fuel light was on several days before my next paycheck without a dime to my name. I promise, things will get better. I know it does not feel that way, but it will get better. You just need to get some time behind you. An easy way to make some more money on the side is to talk to a nursing home for advice on where to take classes for Certified Nurses Aide. They are in big demand. The classes will last from a few weeks to about 5 months. Then you will be paid from $10.00 to around $13.00 or so. It is hard work in a nursing home. Working two jobs is also tough. But two paychecks will be enough to get you back on your feet enough so you can decide what direction you want to take your life. Now that I have breathing room I am working on a nursing degree. I am a guy, by the way. Best wishes.

()()()()() most likely you will lose your car but considering your current situation it should not be your top priority, unless you deliver pizza's for a living and that only supports my position about your situation. Public transportation is a God send, You should be thankful that losing your car is the biggest stress in your life. Heads up! Your life style is not compatible with your mind, when you get them in sync you'll be happy. remember that life teaches
