Have living Standards in America really collapsed? It's a fairly simple question for a complex subject. On the streets it seems so. Go to certain cities like Detroit and Memphis, or states like West Virginia and Kentucky, and you can certainly see poverty everywhere. But the picture is always painted differently by the media.
So then, how badly have living St dropped and can anyone provide empirical evidence to support this collapse? I'm also interested in hearing your personal stories.
Imagine shitty living spaces masked by little bread-and-circus trivial shit. That's what it's like.

Anyone living like that with a baby deserves to get their child taken away immediately. I wouldn't be surprised if that baby was dead by 2 from choking on something they picked up off the floor. Fucking disgusting. Also;

Color me surprised. What a piece of shit.
If you want a good measure of living standards look up daily consumption of staple foods.
I'm a waffle living in the states for a few months.
There are so many trashed and dirty shitholes in here and they all share the same reason. Niggers and spics.
America is still the land of opportunity for anyone who is smart and industrious. The same job I will have back home would be 40k at a 40% tax rate while in the US it would pay 70k at a 30% tax rate.
America is an amazing place to be smart and a terrible place to be stupid. The former thrive and the latter live in their own filth. Sadly, the US is importing 85 IQ spics by the millions.
no idea b/c i don't live in shithole democrat cities with no work available

>shit on the floor everywhere
>fast food all over the place
Being poor is one thing. But this is straight up being a dumb shithead with a lack of morals. Libs always make excuses for people like this as if cleaning up your shit pulling out costs money. Give me a day and I'll turn that shithole into a comfy bunker.

It's probably a lot more expensive to live in a half decent somewhat safe area,at least near a city. It's so weird how the most expensive place(from a property value) in the world, the Island of Manhattan, is half uninhabitable bc of blacks and puertoricans,with only harlem as the only "safe" border area that's gentrified for tourists wanting to take selfies outside Apollo.
Even with kikes jewing the market so real estate prices remain high, the demand for living there is so high that the prices would not drop if it's a gradual gentrification. Of course it's a singular place,but it's always struck me as weird place,that little island

I disagree, the smart dont thrive. I can tell you this from personal experience.
My supervisor for the Network Consultation company I am working for, She seriously thinks that the internet runs on gas and air pressure going through the 'tubes'.
I don't stand to correct her, because the environment is so saturated with estrogen, that I fear I would be called a sexist bigot if I even speak up. I can't even look them in the eyes for more than 2 seconds for fears of sexual harassment.
It's so god damn toxic I really want to get out.
America is the land of affirmative action and victim-hood.

Inflation and constant housing bubbles
Also the government subsidizes and bails out everything causing prices to stay high
Example: college tuition used to be pretty cheap for your run of the mill university, but the government decided to start handing out loans and grants to everyone. Then all the colleges realized they could make the tuition ridiculously high.
tl;dr socialism is causing the downfall of the US

Fortunately, illegal migration across the border has dropped by 70% since Trump has taken office.

I like Memphis though. It has soul
Standard of living peaked in the mid-70s.

Strangely enough, America is far more politically correct in the corporate and public sphere than the EU. My father's coworker once called a family of turks living in his appartment building '''parasites'
