WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT AMERICA

In the book "What's So Great About America" Dinesh D'Souza points out that the three truly western institutions of science, democracy, and capitalism are responsible for the hegemony of western culture.

This blog primarily has a focus on science and economics (in sorts a study of capitalism), which certainly are influenced by government. In light of this and the upcoming Thanksgiving Day holiday (which is a celebration of the triumph of providence, capitalism, and agriculture) the next few series of entries will carry this theme- taking a brief rest of the previous focus on organic foods.
