Our economy is about 20-25% of the global economy, and that % is falling fast.

No it isn't. Falling very slowly perhaps, but its been in that range since the early 70s, and not far out of that range for even longer. China's rise relative to the rest of the world, might indicate a decline for the US relative to China, but not so far a decline for the US relative to the rest of the world as a whole, to any large degree, except for during the period of time when countries recovered from WWII catching up to the US (which hadn't been damaged by the war the way many other major economic powers where).

Very recently we have been underperformed the world norm in the recession and how slowly we are recovering from it. But that's to short of period of time to demonstrate a new trend yet.

Also in recent years Africa has done better than shown by that chart.
