> “Like many people,” says Rall, “I have often wondered why so many Americans seem so emotionally flat and politically apathetic in response to a political and economic landscape that cries out for protest, or at least complaint. Could it be that our society’s most angry — justifiably angry — are being medicated into quiescence?”

But aren't they people who turned anger unproductively against themselves in the first place? That's America for you - individualize social problems.
