So it is OK for a person that is not your spouse to dictate your finances to you? I had, and have all that other stuff covered, and own my home free, and clear. She just wanted more stuff from me, like vacation homes, and luxury cars. It was pure greed.

Or they prostitute themselves for their own ends. Either way they get nothing for their efforts.
Oh so that means we don't suffer from health issues???
No that means men have the means, politically, legal and financial to bring awareness of men's issues and follow up with outreach, support groups, research, etc.
I think this is a good summary. Men's current issues probably aren't viewed as serious or given as much exposure as women's. It's not just white people in the rust belt a lot of black men in cities like Chicago, Baltimore, and Philly are struggling too.
I think what happens is since women are doing really really well right now it's possible men get a little flustered when it's viewed that some women are scoffing at them and not giving a crap or taking things serious. It's probably viewed by some that a lot of women still value a man greatly by his net worth which is a bit of a first world problem when you're taking into account women are making more money than ever.
Women in the U.S. are most likely the wealthiest women in the world whereas men in the U.S. are seeing their purchasing power decline when compared to men in other first world countries in Europe and so on.
Some women are doing really well. Many are not. A lot of this is not about policies that pit women against men, but policies that negatively impact both.
Men could do a great deal to improve their lot in life by not voting for politicians who oppose a living wage, work tirelessly to destroy unions, and fight against things that would benefit both sexes, like paid sick and maternity/paternity leave. I point this out specifically because you brought up Europe, which is knocking our socks off in all those areas.
As to the rest, there are women who value men mostly for their earning potential. Increasingly, there are men who disdain any women without a "professional" career, and, as always, lots of men are interested primarily in a woman's looks. Those who entice a partner on the basis of money or appearance alone probably end up with exactly what they deserve: a mate who values nothing else about them.
Men by nature are doers not talkers. Those men at the construction site at 4am in the rain could easily be at home bitching. Which group complains the loudest? The squeeky wheel gets the grease.

Women want to be both equal AND special.
I don't know, seems to me the OP is pretty good at talking.
I think there is an acceptance to rag on men, especially white men, more since the election. It is in bad taste and doesn't help us as a society. Many traditionally male jobs have been lost. There are some real issues for men today, but they are being overshadowed by whining MRAs. Maybe the MRAs should take a look at the REAL issues and stop demeaning women and demanding they date losers and jerks. MGTOW is not men going their own way, or they would shut up about how awful women are, and actually just go their own way.
Average Joe in the rust belt doesn't care about that, he wants to be able to support his family and no one is listening. You just talk about competing with third world country sweat shops. Then you call him racist and sexist. That shows what we think of our fellow Americans.
Those snowflakes need to wipe their nose, dry their tears and pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Or they can join the unite the white movement and dry each other's tears with the warmth from their Home Depot tiki torches.

Men built this world. Women have their part too of course, bit let's not deny the world we live in.
