Think we're gonna see a weird situation where things get progressively worse within the US over the next 20 years but it paradoxically becomes even more dominant economically vs rest of world... 

If you look at other major world economies they all seem to have even bleaker prospects comparatively...

Only other major economy with better short term trajectory is probably India due to being on cusp of its 'demographic dividend' period like China was in the 2000's or Japan was in the 1980's (ie the period around 20-50 years after birthrates decline when you have a disproportionate number of working adults relative to kids and elderly). 

I do think more and more wealth will flee into gold and crypto and the Weimarization process will continue obviously but compared to other top 10 countries its hard to see the US not outperforming no matter how chaotic and dysfunctional things get within it politically.
