Simple they are inferior to us. Not that we did not have many failures but being superior we have advanced much further and much quicker that these, Oh so easy to be offended, central planners. Like China, if they cannot steal the technology, they would be another 20+ years behind the times. But they would be offended if anyone said that. TFB.
Which brings up a point: Did you ever notice that what ever group we may be discussing, those who are easy to offend are also inferior and are not advancing at the same rate as the rest of civilization. Mudslimes come to mind immediately.
