Also, the US isn't a single entity. It's an agglomeration of 330 million people interacting with one another and it's various levels of governance at the local, state and federal level.

Natural disasters can destroy wealth by destroying assets. Individuals can squander their wealth through bad investments. A government can steal wealth through taxes. Wealth can be forfeited through civil or criminal proceedings. Wealth can dwindle in real terms due to inflation. So on and so forth.

But to say that the "US destroyed wealth" makes no sense and isn't either a supportable or falsifiable statement.
