The deterioration of the West has been slow and steady over the last 50 years. Due to policies of both sides.
The industrialisation of the 3rd world has led to the 1st losing too much of it's industrial power and customers, we have in fact turned into a consumer of goods rather than a producer.
The belief that the 1st should accept millions of 3rd world immigrants has also led to the loss of balance between takers and contributors to the system. Add on top of that our own home grown low paid and unemployed who only take out of the system and the effect is obvious.
The reason for this is the price of goods. As Rochard complained things cost more. Yes saving the West from eventual decline will cost more, if you're not prepared to pay more then watch your country sink. Low wage immigrants have slashed the market for home grown labour, yes you get the temporary benefit of low cost labour. But you have to pay more taxes to pay for the out of work and low paid.Oh I forgot you were recently bitching you didn't get any tax refunds this year.
One sector has profited from this trend by a huge margin. The wealth within the 1% has leapt in the past 50 years, the top 20% kept pace or grown slowly. The 80% have got poorer.
Trump has called for zero tolerance of illegal immigrants and is attempting to push China to buy more or face huge tariffs. The Left oppose both because they've been brainwashed.
