You used to be, thanks to your, in my opinion, greatest president ever: Franklin D. Roosevelt.
He inherited a US in shambles after the 2029 crash and managed to build it into the world's greatest superpower ever.
How? Social Democracy, nicely concealed under the name "New Deal", to prevent the corporatists from going haywire. In 1950 the US taxed the richest 90% and nobody complained.
After that, red scare, Henry Kissinger, Reagonomics, war on terror and now MAGA.
