I thought, it asks for it's own topic.

People talking about Japans fate coming to US. Range/Flat/Bear market. For decades.

As far as i understand, it takes people to consume, thus, two simple charts :

and
https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/population



Correlation in Population & Markets. Both flat for the same period ?

Look at the 1990 in the population curve & this :

These are very different projections, U.S. population continues to grow at a declining rate. Japan population expected to decline at a declining rate. Both countries will be fine. Both have projected population profiles compatible with increasing automation. Japan probably slightly more favorable overall because of other considerations. The transition period will be a little difficult, but doesn't have to be. We will make it so, because both countries are run by committee, assuring sub-optimal decision making. But this is preferable to the likely alternatives.

The United States would seem in some danger of losing sight of the great virtue of democracy to be found in its inefficiencies and imperfections as an alternative totalitarianism. Are we, through inattention, maturing into a xenophobic, authoritarian plutocracy or thoroughly fascist state of haves and have-nots? The U.S. is clearly further along its arc of history than is its similarly anglo-french-rooted northern neighbor, Canada. When the time comes, if it comes, know doubt Canada and other more democratic countries will lift their lamps of freedom beside their golden doors to welcome America's tired, poor, and huddled masses of young and healthy yearning to breathe free.

My goodness, if US is even close to what happened / is happening in Japan I will be unbelievably happy if things are that stable and I will truly consider it a blessing.

yep, you are referring to the 80's boom in Japan. Hard to make a conclusion like that if it's gonna be the same loss in US. Tech is the name of the game nowadays and US is leading in tech. We'll just have to see how everything unfolds.
 
The Japanese people are a disciplined homogeneous society with behavioral norms The US in comparison are an unruly people, who if not for the fact that the dollar is the premier currency, would be unable to get anyone to buy their government bonds.
