if only governments were in charge?
Governments are typically a couple steps behind.

First you have the creator of the idea, then the commercial enterprises(losely legal or not) and then the government gets involved when the idea has a noticeable effect.

By that time a significant amount of intelligence exist but the government does not have access to it.

Criminals and comercial enterprised are able to have sharp focus. they can put all of their resources to pursue a specific goal.

That is why the govermments of the world hire criminals and commercial enterprise when a target is moving too quickly so to speak.

The Chinese government itself is not the ennemy you think. They have their own social revolution to contend with. They actually understand the interdependance of US and China, they know that killing this market would be suicidal. They also understand that freedom and democracy are an essential ingredient to our success.

The contractors and criminals who feed off the governments of the world, they are the true ennemy. Their priority is instant money and profit.

Somehow we need to raise the ethical standards. Because as long as the contractors and criminals get rated on performance alone, human nature and creativity will be harnessed to steal and disrupt.
