[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Welp, it's been a good run. Seems like becoming the [b]next Argentina [/b]is nearly a fait accompli at this point. The notion that America is exceptional for some intangible or irrevocable reason has always been absurd. Our power and wealth came from our stable institutions, extensive use of soft power, and from the two industries where we had a massive structural advantages that were hard for any other country to overcome: academia and Hollywood. Stable government institutions are already starting to fail, soft power is gone, and the American cultural brand that supported Hollywood is on the outs. If we allow our best researchers to leave, then there's really nothing left to prevent us from becoming a middle-income country.[/quote] Thats exactly what was thinking. Or substitute another country out there [/quote]
