Also the parties realign during this period with conservative southern Democrats going to the Republican party and fully embracing the idea that government is the enemy rather than a potential force for good in people's lives. The subtext being that if you're poor, it's your fault and rich white men should be left alone to run big businesses however they want.

The new Republicans hated the Civil rights Act so much that they filled local swimming pools with concrete rather than open them up to the entire population.
