That seems like a succinct summation of "The Fourth Turning".

Good times also create educated men, and educated men create good times.
Hard times creates uneducated men, and uneducated men create hard times.
The keys is to get the best of both worlds one of two ways. One is to be in hard times just following a time that produced educated men. The other is to figure out as an educated man what strong men do differently than you to make a better society and replicate it along with your education.
Evil forces what to do the opposite. They want to take weak men from easy times and make them uneducated by replacing intellectual foundations with emotional rhetoric.
