Yep people who think the US was once some stable well run country need a good history lesson. This comes from an immigrant to the US happy to grow old here.
And just looking at any US city outskirts is telling.
Also, let’s remember the position of the US in both early WW1 and Ww2.
Faschism & racism are not new additions.
But is it getting better?
How is the trend in regard metrics like Gini coefficient and wealth repartition?
What is better before ? Yes, until the 80s, the IRS and middle class were still a thing.
I wonders what will happen to channel future discontentments. What would be the outlets.
My concern is that once it’s become absolutely clear that upward mobility is broken for most, what will be the recourse of the folks left over in the dust?
