In ten years we won't recognize the new technology that's in the works now.

Superconductors, nanotechnology and biomechanics will astound the world as well as create millions of new jobs.

America has always led the technology booms but the competition is getting stronger.

We need more than ever to make American ingenuity more competitive by rolling back anti-business regulations.

In the 1970s, autoworkers' unions held back modernization of Detroit's assembly lines from the implementation of robotics.

From that moment on, if not for the exceptional genius of design engineers, America's auto industry was dead.

Nuclear energy as an alternative to fossil fuels is highly desired if only it's hysterical opponents could be sidelined.

The future looks bright if only America's taliban-national socialists would get out of the way.

Well said (as was the rest of your post).

In a world of increased competition and ease of input flows, the best advantages we can have are a superior education system (with emphasis on competition and developing job-ready skills), a business-friendly government and taxation system, and a business-friendly legal environment.

Any threat to any of these needed advantages can not be tolerated.

I thought the American auto industry slumped because of the Japanese beating us to small,well made,high gas mileage cars.

I like forward thinking posts such as yours. Why do you think future opportunities will be in those areas you mentioned above?

Well damn stated. If the idiots who think we have a pure capitalist economy would take a look, the damned government is impeding even greater growth. Why we are giving tax incentives (Import-Export Bank for one) to move industry to China, India, etc. and not giving tax incentives to keep the jobs here is beyond the pale. This is not a demorat or pubbie problem. It is a neosocialist globalist problem run by a bunch of faceless bureaucrats in D.C.

Our representatives need to start paying the price in the voting booth if they do not stop these moronic policies. Get the government off our backs and we'll grow at 8% annually for decades. There are enough of us on FR and in this nation to create the job growth and security needed. It just takes us too many damned years to pay the fees, file the paperwork and pay those G*d damned leeching attorneys to get a large business moving fast. Streamline it and get out of the way.
We'll make America even greater.

Our selected officials will not do anything but add regulation and complicate the tax system even more.
