I'd put the Nixon and Reagan years as the start of the decline as per:

Reagan fired the air traffic controllers, decimated union protections, and started the great wave of "free market" globalization that triggered the move of US manufacturing jobs to cheap labour markets.

According to that graph, the disconnect started before Reagan - around the end of the Vietnam War.  Maybe that was the cause.  Or maybe it was going off the gold standard.

I'd say started by Nixon, with the whole Pandora's box thrown open by Reagan.

https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/brett-kavanaugh-trump-2020-election_n_5f977b16c5b6e1e7076381c2

The five conservatives on the Supreme Court affirmed an appeals court ruling overturning a decision that would have extended Wisconsin’s mail-in ballot receipt deadline by six days. Absentee ballots in Wisconsin now must be received by the close of polls on Election Day.

This 5-3 ruling comes as part of a string of decisions by the conservatives on the court blocking lower court rulings that would have made it easier to vote during the coronavirus pandemic. But hidden within the main concurrence written by Justice Brett Kavanaugh are two threats much greater than overturning six extra days for ballots to arrive by mail: He explicitly endorsed legal theories that could help President Donald Trump stop the counting of mailed ballots after Election Day or, worse, override results with the help of Republican state legislatures.  

First, Kavanaugh, who was appointed by Trump, affirmed the sentiment expressed by the president that it is somehow necessary for the election to be decided on election night and that suspicion should be cast upon valid ballots counted after Nov. 3 in states that allow election officials to do so.

“For important reasons, most States, including Wisconsin, require absentee ballots to be received by election day, not just mailed by election day,” Kavanaugh writes. “Those States want to avoid the chaos and suspicions of impropriety that can ensue if thousands of absentee ballots flow in after election day and potentially flip the results of an election. And those States also want to be able to definitively announce the results of the election on election night, or as soon as possible thereafter. Moreover, particularly in a Presidential election, counting all the votes quickly can help the State promptly resolve any disputes, address any need for recounts, and begin the process of canvassing and certifying the election results in an expeditious manner.”

Correct.  Without Nixon opening up China, the manufacturing base would've stayed in the US or went elsewhere.

“If the apparent winner the morning after the election ends up losing due to late-arriving ballots, charges of a rigged election could explode.”

Gold standard was the start of the plan. But remember what happened during WW2 before the US got involved? History tells us something along the lines of:  'over night, the US transformed its production factories into their own war machines'. Thats a big reason for the offshoring of America's facilities - globalists dont want a repeat. They also want everything made in China with functional back doors.

Man they sure passed that supreme Court nomination in a hurry, between that Kavanagh rapist and this dumb bitch that country is fuckedd

Interesting side note: Barret was a clerk for Justice Scalia - remember the SC Justice found dead with a pillow over his face during Obama's tenure? Internet tells me there was no autopsy either. So, Obama could've appointed one then but didnt. If Hillary didnt fucking lose her own rigged election, she would've had two as well.

Wait until Roberts is off the bench and Trump gets one more nomination. Oh noes.

And the SC just shot down one or two state's request to extend mail in ballots received a week after the election. Oh ya, that's how it works when the DNC/MSM and everyone else was telling all the Buydem voters to vote early and vote often (lol).

Idiot liberal's are going to kick, scream and burn shit starting Election Day, if not before.

And for those who dont agree with Barret being nominated or confirmed that fast, here's some words from your former savior's.

LMAO.  OIC, we can pretend that it is OK because the GOP didn't change the rules to steal an Obama pick and then changed them back to replace RBG while America was voting?  Surely even you can see that Trump should not have been able to fill both seats.  Surely.
