We do have more possessions in this country, but happiness has very little to do with possessions. The displaced worker in the US has been degraded to an unemployed loser that isn't marketable. The Indian taking their place has been raised to god status in their country.... life, liberty, and the persuit of happiness... We'll have to change this to life, liberty, and the persuit of a job, I guess.
The economic system is only good if people believe in it. If people lose faith in their country and stop believing their hard work will pay off, the economy will crumble.
It's funny that companies didn't have any problems competing until offshoring began!
