We have a 20T debt and a growing worthless segment of our population with no morals or work ethic.

But we have lots of diversity. Hurray.

More right wing pessimism blended with a good dose of gloom and doom.

But just remember, tRump is busy making everything better.

Of course we are losing the war for the future, we have a president of the US and a Congress who do not believe in education and are backing increasingly obsolete technologies like coal.

The culprits of our decline are running this country and until we kick them to the curb our decline will continue.

if America is in fact losing out, its due to constraints and cronyism that the guv has in place, because there is no shortage of brilliant minds or capital here.
