The predominant outlook about the future isn't positive in America anymore. The difference starts and ends with attitude. Americans cannot compete because excellence and pride of work and community are gone, pay is low for most people, politics are extremely divided, and most Americans keep to themselves and don't care about anyone else.
China wins just on attitude and growth, but also has the "cheat code" of authoritarianism where anything can be imposed top-down without much push back.
