Think of two middle-classes like Industrial vs Tech. The atoms world of America is a world of decline and tech for now is on ascendance. That will not continue perpetually, sooner or later the tech boom will end and re-industrialization of US will begin. But that will need us going through lot of pain, suffering and healing.

Unsustainability of long supply chains. The coronavirus is just chapter 1.

You can see the same problems even within technology, look how dominant companies like Apple or Google have become whilst the rest of us are gleaning for leftovers.
