With this new found power, America began a tumultuous half-century that was marked by massive struggles for civil and human rights, aggressive and ruthless business practices, odd and exciting cultural innovations, drastic shifts in social structures, and an astounding consumption spree (some sources suggest that Americans consumed more between 1950 and 2000 than every human that had ever existed before 1950).
