'America in Decline' Narrative Finally in Decline?

[memphis]

America, like the world, is changing rapidly. Whether it is in "decline" depends largely on what metric one is using to determine that statement. Our inequality has become out of control, and there are all sorts of problems that are associated with that. Our government and laws have become unwieldy. No doubt about that. Yet, we are still a very wealthy nation. One that is wiping out disease across the globe. One where information has never been more accessible. One where the disabled have never had more rights. One where discrimination regarding race, religion, gender, sexual orientation etc is not permitted. And so on. It's a complicated world. Decline or No Decline is not adequate.
