All romanticism aside, history is what led to the way things are today and can ultimately lead to how things will be in the future. Massive Open Online Courses, an online education organization, puts it into perspective:
“Take the Great Depression, for example—one of the most difficult but impactful periods in American history. The economic crisis put almost 15 million people out of work and sent countless families into homelessness, stealing their sense of security. Many of those people would feel insecure for the rest of their lives.”
“The government had to learn how to help. This effort gave rise to Social Security, federal emergency relief programs, and funding for unemployment efforts. These changes continue to make life more secure for millions of Americans.”
“Society today comes from hundreds and thousands of actions like these. The more you learn about how these things happened, the better you understand real life.”
