The prize for ultimate inefficiency goes to America. We have built in so many checks and balances that our 'leaders' are the most thoroughly hogtied of any on Earth.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Every good cause is worth some inefficiency.
The United States prides itself on being the richest country in the world. Yet we can't balance the budget, pay for education, or take care of the aged and infirm.
But the - look, I think that this - the United States of America is still the most powerful economy in the world. It is an incredible engine for creativity and innovation. And it has the most - smartest, most effective workforce in the world. So we have a lot going for us, in spite of the fractiousness of our politics.
We are so reliant on power and technology for everything.
What America does best is produce the ability to accept failure.
America in particular imposes an horrendous burden on the world. We have this wonderful standard of living but it comes at enormous cost.
The only prize much cared for by the powerful is power.
America's competitive advantage lies in its human talent. All of us should be doing everything we can to cultivate and develop our work force.
As the world's sole remaining super power and economic powerhouses, our nation's ability to be at the forefront of innovation and production has enabled unparalleled economic success of our nation's workforce.
The fact that the U.S. is superior to all others allows for free commerce to take place.
