Good point. And you are 100% correct. But at least China's roads and bridges aren't crumbling. Our Roads, Bridges, Airports, and Railways are old, outdated and rundown. Cities like Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Dubai, etc… makes our cities look 19th century. America is starting to look really run down. Any idea on why? Tax breaks cant fix roads and bridges.

Have you ever been to NY (Tri-State area)? In North Jersey I've seen pot hole infested roads in "McMansion" developments. And in NY the roads are beyond horrible. As we speak there's a pot hole that can swallow a basketball located on "Main Street" where I live. America is going down the gutter. That isn't an opinion. I think everyone needs to come to that realization.

And besides, Michigan shouldn't be crumbling. We're supposed to be the richest country in the world yet some of our cities look like South American cities. This country was built by Rail yet our rail system hasn’t improved in 40 years. Japan just celebrated the 31st anniversary of their bullet train. The U.S has yet to build one single bullet train. Leaving Japan or Hong-Kong international Airport and landing back in JFK airport (USA) is like going from the Jetsons to the Flintstones.

We are way behind in everything (solar/green energy). Our cars are crap. No real innovation is coming out of America. And how does our GOV’t plan on fixing this? By cutting education, the very thing that creates the environment to innovate. And giving larger tax breaks to corporations and hedge fund managers. We are screwed.

Thanks! Good read.
