As an observer outside? Definitely. The US is becoming an oligarchy. All the metrics point to this, the erosion of the middle class compared to other developed and developing countries being just one more indicator.
However, if you are very well off, I think the US is a wonderful place to live. Especially for someone in technology, as all the breakthroughs and the content etc. take place in the US. In fact anywhere else you pay much more for the same thing. (except broadband). So if you like and can afford "stuff" ...the US is the place to be! You have a business and want access to 300m plus consumers in a consumerist society? Where else is there? http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2014/04/how-did-canadas-middle-class-get-so-rich/361053/ ᧠On 23 April 2014 09:48, Sam <[email protected]> wrote: > > So you think maybe we're on the wrong track? > > . > > > On Tue, Apr 22, 2014 at 5:12 PM, Larry C.
