Some fat slob in a family where nobody has held a job in four generations actually lives better in the U.S. today than the workers -- and even the captains of industry -- in that "industrial powerhouse" you describe. I don't know if that means we're better off today, but you really can't dispute any of this.
So is part of being a “movement Conservative” constantly cutting down Americans and telling them they are stupid and lazy? Or is the stateless globalist way of assuaging their guilty conscious?

Yeah, that’s like saying that an American welfare case living in HUD housing is better off than a Roman emperor because he has color TV and air conditioning and Caesar didn’t. Contrary to your claim that argument is very definitely in dispute.
