I'm starting to wonder why the US ever thought it could it hold an edge in all these fields without ever investing real money into education.
China graduate 5 million STEM students a year and actually invest money into research and pushing technology instead of just finding new ways to extract rent. They were always going to be able to catch up and then move ahead.
Their plan was to import talent while defunding schools here to give the capitalists tax breaks. China is able to retain their talent though and put them to better use than a capitalist economy ever could.
