I realize that what an utter failure our global economy is. I do not want to bash it without preserving some of its good sides. So I will say only what really bothers me.
Lately or rather for a few years now, we have heard of the champion developing states. We call them the tigers, the elephants, the bull, the monkey? (no offense.. just mockery). Economic journal and artilces tell stories of their superceding growth and the eminite demise of the Western countries, but under what empircal analysis. I am not saying that these countries cannot beat America & Europe. I'll be honest not only would it take years it take a lot of resources! who said building a legacy was easy? did Alexander the Great conquer region after region land after land without recompense? no! he paid dearly and the same time left a legacy! a history. I don't take these things lightly, but these news article of rising tigers are playing politcs. If I were to ever read another of those article it would be to put a temporart smile on my face. Aristotle once said that it takes a smart man to entertain even that he does not believe.
Basically, I want to read something matrial. Why is Brazail growing, why is China surpassing America at such a high speed and what keeping them from knocking us down. We can learn from eachother, but we are always interested in the next winner of the unoffiical campaign. Was anyone ever running? we need to take the state of our economies and the lives of the people seriously.
