Actually the US GDP is the same as the EU GDP -- almost 18% of the world's. [1] That's a little above China's. About the same as Japan + India + Brazil + Russia.

Currently non-US economies represent 82% of the world. Non-US Internet users represent 90%. Non-US people are 95% of the world.

And the US is not growing its share of world GDP, Internet usage, nor population.
