I do agree America had a magic moment after WWII, and that we have an amazing run, and that yes some of this is just a rebalancing. But we are getting absolutely hosed, decade after decade, by half the US Government intent on helping milk every ounce of value & hope they can from the land & it's people. We are getting absolutely hosed the the 0.1%. There's endless political distractions & nonsense spamming the air, and very little attention to where the wealth is really going: yes some of it is going to rising middle classes in other countries. But the wealth of all nations is being captured by a vicious Global Elite E1 Barbarian class, who is engaged in war against everyone else, and who have purchased a huge number of media outlet & have their hands in many government policy-makings to insure their share of the pie only ever goes up.
The world over, the ultra-rich are fleecing the rest of the planet. The wealth of the 0.5% has soared astronomically. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_in_the_Twenty-First_Ce...
