What's the Matter with Kansas?

"Kansas is ready to lead us singing into the apocalypse. It invites us all to join in, to lay down our lives so that others might cash out at the top; to renounce forever our middle-American prosperity in pursuit of a crimson fantasy of middle-American righteousness." Thus closes Thomas Frank's fascinating new book called "What's The Matter with Kansas?" You can get a taste of this writer's gift in a Bill Moyers interview at Working For Change. But I recommend you read the book.
