I recently saw a posting in "Politico" that struck me as so close to my own feelings as to what's happening in the USA that, for this post, I'm deferring to another writer. Concise, and very much to the point, it parallels my own convictions as to what's gone wrong. And, again like myself, the author has no pat and easy answers to offer. But the first step in solving any problem is obtaining a clear understanding of the issues involved. Here, in admittedly abbreviated form, we have that. At minimum, it helps explain why two/thirds of Americans, over multiple polls for several years, believe that our country has been on a 'wrong path' for decades now. Personally, I think it started with Reagan's 'trickle-down' theory of economic progress. And I see no end in sight.
