A process that started August 1971. I caught up with 1986-87. Arrested artificially by Reagan/Volcker by fleecing. It was held back in the 90 by Clinton and globalization: Opening markets, privatization, de-regulation, liberalization. Accelerated under Bush Jr. Obama just trying to give a face of decency to the final drop. In Europe -which was called Eurosclerotic in the 80s- was arrested by a combination of globalization, the fall of communism, extracting efficiencies from an inneficient system aka Europe 1992 and EU enlargement. Yes, time is shaping the decline because people started spending what they expected to be there for them to spent, aka the Ponzi scheme called retirement. Dealt with all that now we need only to map the next steps this thing is going to take.
