You still seem to be suggesting that one should invest with a singular focus: How can I protect myself (or profit) from a "worst-case future scenario". Like paying for insurance, one should consider a small fraction (a very small fraction) of one's portfolio for this type of "investment" or risk protection. Otherwise, one should "invest" in their view of the future, with the bulk of the investment in areas where the "potential" return is the greatest. I would disagree that our manufacturing sector has been "gutted". I certainly would not characterize this sector of the US economy in such a fashion and I think you do a disservice to everyone who works in this area to make such a claim. You seem to imply that luck is the only reason America has done well in the past. Bad luck caused the depression and that good luck going forward is the only way Americans will prosper in the future!?! If this is what you are suggesting, then I (politely) say that you are a fool and that you don't have a clue as to what America and Americans bring to the world's economic tables.
