Its in decline becasue our politicians are nothing more than corporate puppets that do what they are told. Its corruption thatis killing this country. Not spending. Unfortuantely for the average American, there is far too much profit to be had by crashing the economy over and over.

I'd start looking there to fix things.

Politicians and corporations aren't forcing people to live beyond their means, assume debt they can't afford, forego education, marry themselves to purile sectarian politics, and all the other shit the American people do to ensure that, as bad as the government may be making things, they'll make them a whole lot worse on their own.

China isn't making 78" LCD TVs, Polo clothing, and every other manner of shitty gadget because of supply-side economics.

Business and politics just opened the door.

The American people in their greed and stupidity are the ones who immediately began throwing everything they owned out that door in order to secure better pricing on things they couldn't otherwise afford and still have no real need for.
