But there\u2019s a lot of good news in the U.S. economy too, including incredible strengths and advantages that date back through the country\u2019s history. Dan Sullivan and Mark Young lay out the first five of ten positive facts about living in the U.S. and explain why the media sticks to negativity. Part two coming soon!  SHOW NOTES: The oldest part of our brains recognizes threats to life when we hear certain kinds of bad news. The U.S. is the only country that\u2019s been growing over the last 15 decades. Over the last 150 years, wars destroyed the economies of many countries. A lot of Americans don't realize just how dynamic and diversified the U.S. economy is.  Sixty percent of the Canadian economy is dependent upon trade with the United States. Donald Trump has proven that people will pay a price to get into the American economy. The U.S. has the biggest consumer market that\u2019s ever existed. How people buy things in the U.S. is completely different from how they buy things in other countries. Donald Trump generates patriotism in other countries. The academic and bureaucratic classes in the U.S. have more in common with people in other countries.
