USA: The Decaying Empire

From my POV, It was Ronald Reagan that really is the responsible for many of the problems America faces today.

Reagan marks the definitive end of the New Deal as he unleashed hyper capitalist forces. He effectively killed trade unions and removed taxing of the rich. The US working class has been stagnant ever since.

Regan is also responsible for agressive military spending, which naturally diverted funds from things like infrastructre and social needs of the public.

Finally Regans hyper-capitalism allowed US factory owners and businesses to relocated to China, in order to increase profit. Which they did, but at the cost of US workers and industrial manufacturing sector.

They regret thanksgiving that’s for sure.

Native Americans did not use the wheel for agriculture and transportation. Think about for a day what that means

The top marginal income tax rate has oscillated between 30% and 40% from Reagan to Biden.

Could be specific about what aspects of New Deal ended ?

You have a point about relocation of factories to China. That happened after Reagan left office

But we need it to add to the scheduled programming to repost about 5,765 times in 63,287 threads on 1,247 fora just to make it seem like an everyday occurrence in a decaying evil empire, to as many gullible as possible.

Ready, set, start clicking! :D

over 60 death just in New York subway in a year is not very uncommon. Those people didn't have to die.

“An even smaller percentage was assaults — that is, people being pushed to the tracks. (Though with pushes to the tracks comprising three of last year’s 10 subway murders, a 30-year high, a small percentage is too many.)

In most cases — well more than two-thirds — people ended up on the tracks voluntarily.”

You can go and find it out, but if there were a screen door, they could've done suicides or crimes on the platforms in the first place. but I agree they may be able to find other ways to kill themselves.

Exactly. Every city decides it’s solutions according to its needs. Your telling NYC what to do is like me telling you to use a knife and fork. That is not for me to say.

US subways are actually trying to do it, but halted for lack of money.
