Open post DizzyDervish @It_is_me@mastodon.social · 4mo ago Replying to @gatesvp@mstdn.ca A great one from Quora. Question: How long will it take America to recover after Trump is gone? Answer (Franklin Veaux): About as long as it took Germany to recover after WWII: basically, two generations. But we will never, ever recover the power and influence we once had, just like Germany didn’t. That will never happen. That is gone and it will not come back. The next hundred years will be the age of China, not America. I don't think America has really come to terms with this yet, but that's where we are. I think the age of China will be closer to 50 or 60 years because of demographics. But it's already their era, people are still catching up about how far behind they are. @gatesvp@mstdn.ca maybe that’s not entirely a bad thing. To much power and money have led us here. We could stand to be taken down a notch or two. Get our priorities right. Just saying.
