Christian America vs. Anti-Christ America
The number of poor Americans does not seem to be declining. Earnings by poor workers do not seem to be increasing. It means that the poor are getting poorer while the rich are getting richer.
So, it is unlikely that the gap between the rich and the poor will become smaller any time soon in the US. Today, no matter how rich or how poor Americans are, they claim that they are Americans. But, in the near future, it might change.
So, I think the following scenario can be realistic.
Poor Americans might definitely stop regrading themselves as somebody similar to rich Americans. Rich Americans might definitely get indifferent to poor Americans. The US might finally split into America for poor Americans and another America for rich Americans. But violent revolution will not occur. Most of poor Americans will lose interest in trying to get rich through hard working and business/industrial activities. They will find more value in their living poor life than in their making desperate efforts to be rich to any extent. They will be indifferent to rich Americans as much as rich Americans are indifferent to poor Americans. But as the poor Americans will be content with their own life, there will be no drastic revolutionary movement. Social movement of individuals from a lower layer to an upper layer will become rare. The term American Dream will be completely vanished language to poor Americans. And the proportion of this type of poor Americans will be around 40% unlike around 10% which was observed in an era when poor Americans meant mostly African Americans who accounted for about 10% of all the US population.
But, the key factor is religion. More and more poor Americans might become more pious Christians in this trend eventually. Then, they will know that their America is Christian America which cannot be merged with anti-Christ America where rich Americans live.
The point at issue is when or how or otherwise whether any poor American starts to shout that it is anti-Christ to live in rich America. "We have to be poor Americans to be Christian Americans," he might shout rather.
