...programs, not the "fat" he is accustomed to citing. On top of these, he faces rising unemployment, monstrous interest rates and U.S. industries (like cars) that are running on square wheels.

Bradbury began writing science fiction as a teen-ager in Waukegan, Ill. But it was not until François Truffaut filmed Fahrenheit 451 in 1966 that he was widely saluted as one of the masters of the genre.
