      Because America built up a lot of great infrastructure in the 50’s and 60’s before hitting a road bump in the 70’s largely due to international relations blunders like Vietnam and supporting Israel. So then neoliberals took power in the 80’s and started to gut all of that infrastructure they inherited in the name of “profitability”.
