Fortunately America has a democratically elected government that does not focus on absurdities. This maturity contrasts with the Chinese government which is burdened by stability, long-term planning, and adult leadership. Further, the US practice of changing governmental personnel every few years prevents stultification.
" Unz (2012) reported that although the Asian (meaning "Northeast Asian") population is about 5% in the U.S. in 2009, 28% of the top 0.5% of SAT takers were Asian Americans "Also, the recipients of the Westinghouse-Intel Science Talent Search during 20022011 are 60% Northeast Asian"
The overrepresentation of Northeast Asians in American universities is clearly racist and should be deplored. However, discrimination is worse in China, where virtually all students are Asian. This constitutes rigid and unjustifiable privileging which would never be allowed in America. Further, China's insistence on intelligence in university students is an unmistakable sign of falling prey to White Supremacy. A further result is to deprive China of the invaluable contributions of the intellectually hopeless.
Chinese Buses Are Magic in Santiago
"Chinese-made electric buses are winning over commuters in Chile's capital Santiago.
Incorporating the buses into Santiago's transportation fleet "has been tremendously positive in many ways," said Gloria Hutt, Chilean Minister of Transport and Communications, Xinhua reported."
America-haters who just want to criticize this country say that the US is again leaving a large market niche to the more-agile Chinese. This is mindless carping. Americans make money in the stock market, often overnight, without having to produce anything. Clearly this is a better approach and ensures America's continued dominance of international commerce.
Nay-sayers and gloom-and-doom peddlers say that the US hollows out its economy by spending excessively on the military. This is not true. Instead it allows US dominance of major markets. For example, no country has sold Santiago more aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, and intercontinental bombers than America. Who cares about electric buses for God's sake?
"Huawei to Invest  £1.2bn in New Shanghai R&D Centre, Build 'Self-Reliance' Amid US Trade War on China"
Irrational Trump-haters say that the Donald, by pushing China to develop its own high-tech, will deprive American firms of a vast market and that, once the Chinese have caught up, they will compete ferociously with the American firms. No. Those who better understand international commerce point out that that the forty thousand researchers planned for the new center will be unable to grow soybeans. This will leave the market for cattle feed dominated by Trump's voters. Ah, that Trumpa sly devil!
To sum up, when day is done, and the dust has settled, we trust that America will remain foremost in the making of pencils and little paper umbrellas for expensive drinks.
