RE DIVIDED WE FALL KRUGMAN NYT EDITORIAL

Re be afraid, he is right.

"Fragmented from the beginning, we long since have fallen"

might be a better way to put it.

Re, "When Republicans took control of Congress in 1994, the U.S. economy had strong fundamentals", unfortunately he has date and terminology wrong.

The last time the US had a 'strong,' but declining, 'domestic economy' (the only one that counts when it hits the fan) was in the early 70s.

Civilizational Advantage was already shifting at that point, say around the time of the Nixon Shock.

The USA intentionally did not have a strong government, then or before or now.
