Is the prediction that services employment share will remain around 80% as production per worker continues to increase? A historical correlation is not always the best at predicting the future, especially if the underlying factors responsible for the correlation are not thoroughly understood.

That sounds like a terrible experience but thank you for trying.

We learned about Anne Frank and read Night in middle school. In high school we had separate classes for US, world, and European history. We covered the beer hall putsch, kristalnacht, Reichstag fire, that Hitler was given emergency powers, etc. WWI reparations and hyperinflation. Propaganda and Josef Goebbels "if you repeat a lie long enough, people will start to believe it". Watched some of Triumph of the Will. We also had separate classes covering western philosophy which included Nitzche and how Nazis appropriated the will to power. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of the details. However I suspect this is more education than the average American receives.

Yes, and pay the import tariff. I'm sure you can afford it since taxes are so low.

Yes. But didn't the entire stock market (SPY) do the same thing on the daily chart?
