I don't see why decadence is not an accurate conceptualization for everything you're describing.
Not the person you're responding to, but it's hard as an American to see our country as decadent. The majority of us poors are barely making it paycheck to paycheck and don't experience anything you might call decadent. For the record I agree with you that on the world stage decadence is a valid adjective for the state of the US, but I don't know that I'd have that perspective if I never lived outside of the US and never got to see it from the outside looking in

I understand what you say, and yeah I get it. I'm sorry shit's so rough for you guys right now too.
The way I see it, decadence is always about the ruling classes. There are times where they are more about honor and the good of the nation, and there are times when they are just about luxury, pleasure, themselves and nothing more. That is what I consider decadence. -
