I don't understand what your saying. I took american history and had many subjects in English class about this thing. In the 1950's, It was a time of peace and economic development. It also was the time were television was created and commercials became abbundent and the fast-food industry's seeds took root. And the televisions were all saying the same thing "You should keep up with the Joneses." That is why I believe it was the utiopia in american history.

Just sayin'.
And a utopia for one race usually ment a distopia for another. When ever I think of a utopia off the top of my head, I think of the 1950's america, blade runner and other things. (A distopia shrouded in an utiopan appeal.)

One more thing, if you think that 1950's america wasn't a utopia or a utopia is the same as paradice, I encourage you to watch Pleasentville and/or Footloose.
