Abraham Lincoln predicted the Gilded Age and would not be surprised to see how money continues to corrupt our political system. Noting that the North had become an industrial power during the Civil War, he said, "I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. As a result of the war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed."
In the first Gilded Age in this country, societal discontent grew until the country was gripped by violent strikes and protests at the turn of the century. This time, the power elite is better equipped. Now the government can brand malcontents as terrorists, gather secret evidence against them without judicial review, and bring the full power of the government to bear with fewer restraints... We're going back to the land.
