I am not a pessimist. I don't believe the geography/demographics argument. Brazil had that and yet the performed really badly. Argentina has a great geography with no demographic tensions and have performed catastrophically. Also, the US is coming from a high point, not 0.

It's also that the U.S. is a developed country. Most countries are either developed or have good geography, demography and access to natural resources. U.S. has all or it.
