America in Gridlock is Volume 6 of A Basic History of the United States.

This audiobook is about the development of the American social welfare state, from FDR to LBJ, with particular emphasis on the ideas (social, political, and economic) that have formed the basis of America's social welfare state.

For decades now wealth and power have been shifting from states to markets. This experiment has been a failure for all but a privileged few. But this trend is beginning to reverse, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has seen the state play the most direct and positive role in citizens’ everyday lives in living memory. Graeme Garrard makes a powerful case for the state as our only realistic hope of countering the rising power of multinational corporations, organized crime, and international organizations that will always put their own interests first.

This book is the fourth volume of a study on the development of the American social welfare state since 1934. This volume covers the first two years of the administration of President Donald Trump and the rise of the Democratic socialist Bernie Sanders and what it means for any further development of America's social welfare state.
