[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Way too early to declare anything.

I’m bullish on America because the competition of this century will not be over commodities or trade but over human capital. Birth rates are falling all over the world and it will upend everything.  China has serious problems coming on that front.

For the total mess that the USA is, the USA is the only country in the world that can really take in and integrate immigrants.  And we have a nearly two-century head start on the rest or the world in that category.

For as anti immigrant as the mood in the USA currently is, the rest of the world, and the Asian countries in particular, are really poor at immigration. [/quote]

I agree with this.  America has done well bc of immigration. That is what has made us great.

The biggest prob facing US are internal.

Lobbyists/healthcare/deficit.  It's about taking care of each other and having civil peace.  It's not how we will compare w rest of the world in terms of marketing, ingenuity, alliances, etc.  Housekeeping comes first but alas, we are not faring well here.   [/quote]

Internal...to me, getting money out of politics - Citizens United was a total crock that started us down this path; getting the fairness doctrines back into our media outlets an somehow getting religon out of politics too. somehow, the GOP has blown through our norms like frogs in slowly boiling water and I have no idea how our country recovers from it.[/quote]

Hilarious. The left owns the mainstream media and educational (ideology camps), but somehow the GOP has blown through the norms. Do you ever step back and read what you write?

A president's house raided. Your political enemies being labeled as depl0rables and MAGA ex+remists. Campus buildings destroyed. Th DOJ weaponized. That's not from the GOP.

Get real.[/quote]
