Why America will remain on top:
When push comes to shove, and let us say that America is #1 in innovation in the world, America’s penchant for innovation is best used for their war machine innovations.
China gets critique for “copying†the design of America innovations. Also stuff that is “made in China†is critiqued for having poor quality control. So let us assume when China tries to innovate their own war machines … they will probably also lack the same self-rigor of quality control for their war machines (not a good thing).
As much as I hate war, violence — the truth seems that in fact, because of America’s war military superiority on the plant, this is what ensures our freedom, power, and control.
Let us also assume that America’s ability to innovate is what helped us win the war (World War II). Consider the Manhattan project and the Atom Bomb. Also, currently Lockheed Martin.
