ElM, the USA never had a natural size and does not really have one to return to. <The system just outlived its usefulness. It is no longer tenable. Because the US has to return to its natural size. > Neither has the system outlived its usefulness. I find it does just fine for me [better than other options anyway, for the most part].

People are not fungible, contrary to the currently popular claims to the contrary.

The interesting thing about capitalism in the US is that there is no central planning committee, so people just do what they want to do, as they want to do it.

There is no system in the US, per se.

It will happen as it happens, and it will be what it will be. No way to predict, no way to control.

Socialism in the US is a mosquito, trying to suck off some blood of beasts that cannot be controlled.

They turn to China, the Wild Wild East, where there are no labor unions, no Obamacare, no environmental controls, and no trade barriers to imports. Cheaper to pay to have goods shipped than pay American workers. Old news.

For the essential workers here, increasingly part timers, 30 hours a week, so no Obamacare.

American workers are screwed. That's what socialism has done for us.
