[lbo-talk] yakking about the right

[Wojtek S]

Jordan: "One could argue the rightward turn from 1980 on has been
achieved by the unified action of all branches of government and that
both a de facto and de jure austerity has been imposed on an
increasingly greater and greater portion of the the u.s.  The unity
(or bi-partisan action if you will) has made budget draining war
possible, deregulation, "free" trade agreements "

[WS:] Amen!  What forces do you think produced this unified action?
Decline of the "Soviet threat"?  Shifts in public opinion in the
direction  favorable to neoliberalism?  "Revolution from above" by
technocrats and their business backers?
