Rainbows + sunshine FOREVER! 

You're right - there. 

People want to believe ONLY IN THE GOOD TIMES. 

For THAT you need A GROWTH (job-generating) ECONOMY.

PLUS, TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, we're faced with a 30-year-NEGATIVE MARKET TREND that will "deflate"
continuously THE BOOK VALUE (the price paid) OF ASSETS: this has been happening in Japan "already" for 
quite some time as the Rich there become "gradually: POORER!

The RATE OF DECLINE of asset values IN THE USA will be determined by THE SPEED OF THE DECLINE OF 
THE U.S. DOLLAR: THE HIGH U.S. INTEREST RATES have helped to forestall ITS INEVITABLE DECLINE which
will turn the USA into A POOR NATION. (See: https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/index/dxy)

By the time of THE NEXT 2024 U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS rolls around, the USA will "look" very different
then it does today as IT'S STILL "HOLDING ON TO THE PAST" rather then "face" THE HARSH ECONOMIC REALITIES 
OF TODAY HEADING INTO A SEVERE ECONOMIC CONSTRICTION  (CONTRACTION implies that it's cyclical + things 
will return to NORMAL down the road: it's WON'T!).
