I read an article by Scott Galloway about the US going down or not, he says the US is fine. Besides him being wrong or right, somehow he missed in it the culture part, or maybe he didnt miss it.. Just decided not to comment. IMHO that is a sign of decadence and not only in the US.. I like to read him from time to time. Know your "ennemies" https://www.profgalloway.com/least-bad/
