This is a long article, but VERY interesting. I hope you will read the whole thing. Two videos are in the article at the source and they are very good too.
Agree.
I do, sadly, see signs of our America slipping into the 2nd world situation the author describes.
I remember a time 60 years ago when we (possibly naively) felt the world would be getting better over time. American values of honesty, fair play, and democracy would expand into the deep dark reaches of the third world. Lifting them up.
Instead, we’ve allowed unfettered importing of those people with those 3rd world habits and values to NOT integrate into our society.
As I approach my 70th birthday I think I will be gone before it reaches critical mass. Still, I weep for what I see coming and for what we’ve lost.
