Complacency due to a lack of national goals and vision.
Watered down academics.
little or no innovations put to use.
Imagination is treated like a disease,
except for exceptions, like Einstein.

Also, we are getting screwed like a common housecat by
bureaucrats who's idea of representation is extortion of funds
to feed corporate welfare. Returns on this dollar investment is
nil. People don't want to believe what is going down. The next wave
will be crippling.

Greed and selfishness are the root of the problem that we are having here in the US. Too bad it is only going to get worse until there is a serious reckoning or wake up call for all Americans. God Bless us!

[SpecialK]

Big corporate greed and big Republican greed, which really are synonymous.
