Eastern europe, balkans, africa, most of asia and latin america are in decline and a shitty place to live, so either USA is in decline too or its doing something else.
USA is classified as right capitalism.
And you think it's declining?
To make a distinction left capitalism would be scandanavia.
USA is declining.
How so?
I mean id give a more detailed answer if it were not for the trade war with china, corona, russian oil and many other factors that make it obvious.
USA is reliant on the capitalist and not the workers, those who allow the capitalist to make profit.
Every economic system has to have workers as its base.
If it doesnt it fails.
Any points you can hint at?
What metrics would you say shows the US is declining
Its declining in exports, productivity, managment of labor.
Basically when it no longer had workers at its economic base economic emperialism stepped in.
so people figured out its cheaper to use 3rd world labor.
Productivity?
It's been rising since forever.
No not really.
Whether it's labor or total factor productivity.
Use of resources isnt domestic.
Most of the economy isn't physical production either, it's services.
Services are reliant on globalism and imports because domestic productivity has been replaced by economic imperialism.
Thats what im saying.
Global market economy.
Its interconnected without a solid base.
Yeah I have no issues with it.
I dont have either because it will lead to better things.
Then why do you think the US is declining?
USA as a country is, USA as interconected economy and monopoly isnt.
Stagnant inflation.
Stagnant inflation?
For same labour worth you cant get today what you could yesterday.
Are you saying pay is stagnant?
No, im saying more and more jobs are being reliant on global market economy, even tho domestic uneployment is low its not reliant on the country but the situation of the market.
And yes inflation is real.
Dollar isnt as much of worth as it used to be.
And prices are rising.
And if they are not rising you have a stock market crash where then the state goes "mmm money printer goes brrm brmmm"
Sure prices rise but incomes rise faster.
