The US is falling behind China in technology

Donald H What you call "spam" is widely known as "truth". I don't know why you shill so hard for China. You seem to be relatively intelligent.

A problem is the tremendous lobbying power companies have over congress. And the willingness of congress to be swayed by their campaign donations.

Yeah right. And that hinges on the American people continuing to believe in the socialist threat hiding under their beds.

The break from that ideological nonsense is getting close to being a real threat.

Let's hope that America doesn't turn to starting a major war as the solution?

My support of China's methods is related directly against America's propensity for military action throughout the world.

My obvious preference would be to see America succeed along with China, with America choosing peaceful coexistence. And I've said that many times before. Now you should understand what you claim to be my support of China.
I hope that can be intelligence you can absorb, but I think that's not likely.

An American says??
buh bye hon, you don't get to play in your sandbox with me.

One of the main reasons the Chicoms unleashed their bio weapon to get rid of Trump was that he was greatly restricting their access to our technology.

That is why they helped to Joe Potatohead to steal the election. They made the Biden family filthy rich and now their man is in the White House. Meanwhile they prosper with technology because Potatohead is not being tough on them.

Unfortunately is seems that the socialist "threat" is a larger concern than the threat from China. Unfettered capitalism seems here to stay for a while.

That is not the current problem the US is facing. What tough actions do you think would help the US create a higher technology pace than China?

Donald H Zakaria is a prominent Liberal globalist. It sure doesn't take much to scare you off. I present you with truth and you turn and run.

Yes, American's are rightfully critical about Xi's brutal treatment some of the people and his global aggressiveness. However we don't seem to be too alarmed that they are gaining a technological advantage at a faster rate than we are. Our focus has been on the balance of trade. But the problem is deeper than that. As I said in the OP the US is at a stalemate in what to do about basic STEM education and R&D.

Sorry but I can't see how Americans would be honestly critical of China's treatment of islamic terrorists when America's extends to several wars and millions killed in the name of fighting terrorism. It can be explained away in just a few words.

America hates Chinese people and they hate Muslims, but they love Chinese Muslims.

We're just not buying into it pal!
Domestic violence on Muslims in America is taking place purely for the reason that America has fought Muslims in other Muslim countries. We would have to pretend that the hate rhetoric didn't exist, when it obviously does.

Americans as a general population are rather confused on who they should hate. Hypocrisy doesn't seem to be much of a sin for most here.

However I am guilty of going off topic. Ironically it seems that the one Canadian on board here has a clearer view of American problems than most Americans do.

Your thread has been a slamdunk. There's no rational attempt at debating the obvious, only a couple of feeble and off-topic objections to it's premise.

I agree. I shouldn't expect too much from this forum.

There is no doubt that they stole from others but we were too free in the past with technology disclosures and too insecure in internet access.

The point is we’re the source, not them, and hand wringing over this belies the fact they’re a top heavy country on its way down.

 

[konradv]

Another problem is that we get a lot of our chips and electronics from Taiwan. We must insure their independence. But that will be a scary stare-down between the US and China.

A stare down is all it will ever be because, despite bellicose posturing, the Chinese know they don’t stand a chance against the US military.

They have surpassed us in a few critical areas and are rapidly gaining on others. They have been on their way up.

While the Right and Left are at each others throats with political quarreling and congress is sluggish on everything except trying to get reelected, the US is falling behind technologically.

Our interests in schooling seems to be centered on bickering about masks and vaccinations and dampened by too much bureaucracy and low teachers salaries. We should be doing what needs to be done to further US education.

China is vying to be the next top superpower and is on track of winning in a decade or so. What can we do?

Opinion | China Will Soon Lead the U.S. in Tech

Beijing pulls ahead in 5G and artificial intelligence, while catching up in semiconductors.

www.wsj.com

Last year China produced 50% of the world’s computers and mobile phones; the U.S. produced only 6%. China produces 70 solar panels for each one produced in the U.S., sells four times the number of electric vehicles, and has nine times as many 5G base stations, with network speeds five times as fast as American equivalents.​

​

China is poised to overtake the U.S. as the global leader in AI by 2030. U.S.-born students are earning roughly as many doctorates each year in AI-related fields as in 1990, while China is on track to graduate twice as many science, technology engineering and mathematics Ph.D.s as the U.S. by 2025. China now clearly tops the U.S. in practical AI applications, including facial recognition, voice recognition and fintech​

Ooo! Graduating so many who get nothing new done.
Check out Elon Musk who is kicking China's ass using only US Citizens.

Yes, good for Musk in advancing technology. But we need more than that in other STEM areas.
