I saw this headline come across the wire this morning and I couldn't help but think that we (Americans) are losing ground due to our political infighting and failure to prepare our youth for the future.
Far be it from the Bushido to promote Communism or the Socialists' movements in Europe and South America but if there is one thing that the headlines point to as a barometer of potential success in countries emerging as "market giants" (see B.R.I.C.) are the systems each have in regards to education and health care-gratis. Granted their systems have their flaws of "long lines and government ran health-care and education stemming from meritorious and for every billionaire there are countless ditch-diggers but alas, it is possible that we, Americans, could learn something from this equal playing field..
We live in the richest country in the world yet we invest little in our future continuation of this power. The class-struggles in this country have become deafing, television and the political pandering by our own elected officials have little or no respect for the process and simply divide our country into red and blue states-the new segregation. If we recall your classics and think back to the fall of Rome: there's one brazen similarity between Rome and the United States-which is the leaders quit looking out for the good of the people (read; the country) and only pursued their own fame and fortune..
