@chrislhayes Yeah. I guess one way to think about it is that the West is in a period of semi-stagnation and can no longer "have its cake and eat it too" (i.e. both have economic growth and growth in life expectancy). In the US, we really seem to prefer the econ/riskier side of the trade. — PolitiTweet.org
