1.0 link 182920 <![CDATA[Enemies of the People]]> http://www.huffingtonpost.com/carl-pope/enemies-of-the-people_b_182920.html Washington, D.C. -- When I first saw Henrik Ibsen's play about a town that ostracizes a doctor for publicizing the fact that the town's mineral baths are seriously contaminated, back in the 1960s, it seemed dated. According to how I had been taught American history, such a cover-up was once possible, but the Progressive era, the two Roosevelts, and the New Deal had transformed America into a modern, thoughtful public-health-committed country. How naive that reaction seems today.
