12. The US hasn't been producing enough engineers for decades now

In order to develop and utilize new technology, engineers are needed. China and India are outpacing us in training new engineers (many school in America). It's what people have been talking about for decades, but little was done here to change the outcome.

There's an American pride that gets in the way of seeing reality. We think our engineering is vastly superior, it's not, in fact Indian engineering right now is cheaper and better for many disciplines. We think American made means quality, it no longer does, in fact American workers cannot keep up with Chinese workers for quality anymore.

We've lost the race, but that doesn't mean it's the end of the world or anything, just means we're going to have to position ourselves to best gain from Chinese economic dominance.

Math and science need to be pushed at all levels of education.
