Competition - Winners and Losers.
I find it most interesting that people talk about global competition from one side of the mouth while talking about "helping" the competition to catch up.

I guess that when I think of competition it automaticaly means that there will be winners and losers, after all that is what competition boils down too. With this as a given, then our goal should be to "win" the competition and to use all the tools available to obtain that goal.

Amazingly there are a good number of liberals in the US running around claiming we (America) has some sort of moral obligation to help the rest of the world, but they never stop to consider that the rest of the world couldn't care a wit about Americans. I mean does anyone really think that India cares a bit that American workers are losing their jobs to out sourcing overseas? Surly NOT!

Understand this much people, these other countries view America and Americans as the "enemy" in the competition and there is little or nothing they wouldn't do to win it. Isn't it time to take off the kid gloves and get down to playing the same game as the rest of the "competition"? From my point of view it certainly is!
