We rank 6th in higher education enrollment; 11th in R&D spending; 27th in life expectancy; 31st in "Adequate food and shelter;" and 84th in the world on the domestic savings rate."<br /><br />Jiminy Cricket those are some sobering figures. Unfortunately, I don't see us ever emerging from this situation only digging ourselves deeper and deeper.Aritulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01687717613812613840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839888179056147237.post-48314144430357742662011-03-28T00:32:56.112-04:002011-03-28T00:32:56.112-04:00I find your blog interesting, well-written, left-w...I find your blog interesting, well-written, left-wing, and non-threatening (thanks, that's refreshing). When researching publishers for my own book, I think I saw yours in the bookstore... I think it's disturbing that Time featured Zacharia's article with a finger pointing downward, yet, to see the finger pointing up one had to turn the magazine upside-down. It's too bad that some believe America is going downhill, but that's why we're all involved - because we want to make it better, right? Please take a look at my blog, http://fromthelefttotheright.blogspot.com You may find it refreshing as well - at least I hope so.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659215329616576561noreply@blogger.com
