The boomer generation of the imperial core were the luckiest mfs in world history, and they don’t even know it. They don’t know that their moment was a historical fluke that will almost definitely never recur.

They could have invested and voted to ensure prosperity continued at least for a bit longer.

But no they picked Reagan. Who slashed all wealth taxes and tore the solar panels off the white house.

We could have followed Norway's example and established a sovereign wealth fund, but no those profits must flow.

They picked Reagan after of Carter for the same reasons they voted in Nixon after LBJ did the civil rights act or voted in Trump after Obama got the presidency -- too much progressive change for a settler colonial state.
