The U.S. has lost at least two generations to budget cuts and de-education. We can’t compete in any arena. Even our military is obsolete, which is why the military industrial complex is thrashing about, pointing a pistol at everyone in the room, and ranting like a madman, demanding all sorts of ridiculous concessions.

Desperation is a stinky cologne.
