America's true glory days were the late 1800s and early 1900s, early industrialization and steam through to the first assembly lines at Ford and Kitty Hawk. True firsts inventions that most of technology today is just a refinement of rather than new ideas. During that time America truly led the world. Everyone had to work hard for that from the inventors to the factory floor but they did and they drug the whole world forward with their hard work and ingenuity.

It is a little telling that the people who want to "make America great again" don't want to go back to that era. They want to go back to the 1950s and 1960s when America's prosperity first came from the power to skim off the top of other countries productivity by abusing having the global reserve currency.
