Two things are causing Americans to suffer an inexorably declining standard of living in my generation:
1. No one thinks about the long term anymore. We only think short term.
2. No one thinks about the common good anymore. It's only "How can this benefit me?
Look at any sign that the overall quality of life in this country is declining, and it can be traced back to those two dynamics. Guaranteed.
I'm not speaking of individual citizens. I'm thinking of the leaders that guide the institutions that affect us all: government, business, labor, and so on.
It's what's killing us.
