WF.
Thanks, I think I get your point.

Pardon me if I seem naive, I'm trying to get my head around this.

In terms of capital or social condition, I think both. Eg. We maintain our capital(and social condition) by being maintaining our overall dominance on innovation. Thus, it may be faulty to assume that by having an advantage, our true innovative risk is lower than if we were competing on equal footing.

To clarify, if I was running for king: I would be not opposed to the production of GOODS overseas. I would be opposed to the production of INNOVATION overseas. Those overseas people aren't allowed to be as smart as us. Thus, in order to maintain dominance, I hereby vote we: a) maintain our monopoly on innovation by buying up all the good brains with newly minted clownbucks and b) keep telling people that our Gross Domestic P====> is bigger than theirs ;-)
