In 1820, the United States had the ninth-largest economy.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Maddison_statistics_of_the_ten_largest_economies_by_GDP_(PPP)</ref> In only 50 years, the US economy was the world's fourth-largest. In 1900, the United States had the world's largest economy. In 1929, during the [[Great Depression]], the US economy crashed, but no country overtook the U.S., since America was way-off five countries fighting for the 2nd place, the Soviet Union, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and China. In 1959, according to [[IMF]] data<ref>https://www.imf.org/en/Publications/SPROLLs/world-economic-outlook-databases</ref>, the US economy hit $500 billion. In just 10 short years, the US economy reached $1 trillion. It doubled again in 8 years, getting to $2 trillion in 1979. Under the [[Reagan administration]], the US got to $4 trillion in just 5 years, in 1984. It took 12 years to get to $8 trillion in 1996, but the major $10 trillion milestone was reached in 2000. The US slowed down dramatically, taking 11 years to just multiply by 1.5, getting to $15 trillion in 2011. The $20 trillion milestone was reached in 2018, but it stayed stuck in 2020, due to the [[CCP virus]]. It is projected to reach $30 trillion by 2030, but will get bumped down by most forecasts, due to the economic explosion from [[China]], who is being cheered on by the [[mainstream media]].<ref>https://tennesseestar.com/2020/03/21/commentary-corrupt-mainstream-media-defends-red-china-attacks-trump/</ref>

Decoupling refers to restricting and terminating certain trade relationships with the [[Chinese Communist Party]]. Decoupling however, is not limited merely to commerce. It will affect student exchange programs as students from China are hand-selected by the Chinese Communist Party and expected to serve the party upon graduation without becoming infected with ideas such as [[democracy]], [[justice]], and [[religion]] while in the United States.  American students studying in China likewise are targeted for compromise, blackmail, and ideological subversion.

Thirteen equal horizontal stripes of red (top and bottom) alternating with white; there is a blue rectangle in the upper hoist-side corner bearing 50 small, white, five-pointed stars arranged in nine offset horizontal rows of six stars (top and bottom) alternating with rows of five stars; the 50 stars represent the 50 states, the 13 stripes represent the 13 original colonies; known as Old Glory; the design and colors might have been the basis for a number of other flags, including [[Chile]], [[Liberia]], [[Malaysia]], and [[Puerto Rico]].
