And, as is always the case, the people in it - are not aware of this.
This should not surprise us, building a large society is a complicated business, things are bound to go wrong somewhere - and sometimes those errors are fatal.
Is it possible to detect these fatal errors? Not really, but it easy to detect the many problems that crop up - and state, that they must be fixed. And if they are not fixed, things will get worse.
And one of these big problems for America now. is the huge difference in income that has arisen. The rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer - and the middle class is disappearing. And most Americans are ignoring this.
They don't argue with the statistics, they just disagree on their importance. And, in the back of their minds - they are certain that America cannot fall. So certain, they will ignore any evidence to the contrary.
They all say, with one voice "Nothing is really wrong!" Which changes nothing.
But, at the same time - they elect Trump, and cannot see much wrong with him.
If you want a strong optimistic case, read Thanks, Meghan Markle, We Needed That. And I quote from that:
This divorced biracial woman, 36 years old, who had built her own career.
