Which economic fundamentals don't look good to you now?

Loss of manufacturing base
Failed educational system
Debased fiat currency and corresponding inflation
Massive budget and trade deficits
Even larger future underfunded liabilities
Increasing resource scarcity
Cultural disintegration

I'm probably missing a few, but its late.

Loss of manufacturing base

We manufacture more than ever.

Failed educational system

Okay, but not economic.

Debased fiat currency and corresponding inflation

Debased compared to what? And what is the inflation rate?

Massive budget and trade deficits

Compared to what? I know why a budget deficit is bad, why is a trade deficit bad?

Even larger future underfunded liabilities

Okay, I'll give you this one.

Increasing resource scarcity

Like what?

Cultural disintegration

Not economic.
