Sometime around 20 or 25 years ago, we stopped wanting to have an amazing elevation of humanity -- instead, for some reason, a majority of the population of the West was convinced to worship poverty instead.

Twenty years ago was 2002. What exactly happened during the Bush administration to make people worship poverty in the USA? Is the aftermath of the Iraq war so large?
