Since the '50's? No. Definitely since GWB took office.
And while the 80's and 90's are largely remembered fondly, it was the hyper-capitalism, deregulation, loosening of rules on the stock market (corporate stock buybacks were illegal till 1983), and attacks on labor in the 80's that set the stage for our long slow downfall. Just took some time for it to snowball into disaster.
