Has Progress Slowed Since 1970?
A short question (poll) before tomorrow's column
“The truth is that if you step back from the headlines about the latest gadget, it becomes obvious that we’ve made much less progress since 1970 — and experienced much less alteration in the fundamentals of life — than almost anyone expected. Why?” - Paul Krugman
Do you agree? I half agree, but for reasons I will explain tomorrow. Curious to hear from you first. :)
The US flourished after WW!! but since 1970, our actual economic growth has slowed and become sluggish.
