This is corporate propaganda. A corporate take on America based on stories that are atypical. The US is a country where the stock market is soaring while more and more people are not paid a living wage, are homeless and cannot obtain fundamental health care. FT is a written for and read by those fewer and fewer people who benefit benefit from this situation. As tech people we are often the beneficiaries of the ever growing disparity between the haves and have-nots, so we do not want hear or think about where this road leads us. Not a good place folks.

America has given free reign to Corporations with United vs FEC. The preamble to the constitution now reads "We the Corporations of the United States".
