> The us economy is rock solid and is basically the only economy innovating at all.
It is powerful, but not apparently healthy and experienced quite some scary events in recent years so "rock solid" is a very weird characterization. The U.S. capitalist system is inherently instable, it undergoes periodic crashes and extraction schemes that make people lose their property or get collectively more indebted. This makes people angry and willing to consider radical changes - see violence and rising popularity of socialism in U.S. It is hard to predict when it happens, but the outlook is not good. For economic/political stability, E.U. looks much better.
