Things going to shit, in the US, correlates strongly with Reagen Era economic policies. The term "trickle down economics" says a lot about why it didn't benefit most people.

In my option, all presidents from both major political parties since Reagan have done more to make it worse, than better.

My conclusion is that what's really going on is class warfare by the ultra rich against the rest of us...

Inequality is to blame I think, the disparity in the experiences are very affected by a person economic background, the elite doesn't identify themselves with the people and the people abominate the elite, in the end though the wealth comes from the labor, that's why I think they are so obsessively trying substitute people with AI robots.
