Iran and iraq are inconsequential in the longer timeline. If you want to beat china you have to educate people to become engineers and scientists and researchers and not social workers. You have to demand excellence from teachers and lower welfare rates until those on welfare go back to work.
The US doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to do that.


The US has the intestinal fortitude to invade Iraq - but not educate? That is silly, if our leader had placed his aim and efforts into education instead of Iraq, there is little he couldn't have accomplished. I don't have the low opinion of America that you do.

Iraq and Iran are NOT inconsequential. Do you have any concept how much could have been accomplished if the money spent on Iraq had instead been spent on education?
