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.


Chindia is still far behind. My sense is that they are easily 80 to 100 years behind us. We don't really want to compete with them in terms of neglecting the most unfortunate in their society.

But I agree. We are going in the wrong direction. Just like in the game of golf - if you lose a few strokes and the other person gains a few strokes - things turn around very quickly.

It would be very difficult for someone intending to hurt us the way we are hurting ourselves.

I hold this administration responsible for the harm that is being done to us and our future well being.
