Isn't it a sad irony that the best candidate in 50 years is inheriting the poison chalice of an America on the brink of collapse... seemingly nobody sees through this: Republicans cut taxes and fuck the economy, Democrats are forced to raise taxes to fix the economy, which in turn causes reactionary voters to vote Republican.

I look at my computer and see Dell, an American company. I look at my operating system and see Windows, also an American company. Of course, some people have a MAC which is made by Apple, but, that's an American company, too. Then I do a search on the #1 search engine in the world, Google, also an American company. I open up my computer and see the name of the biggest chip processor company in the world, Intel, also an American company, and, I see the name of the biggest high end graphic card maker in the world, NVIDIA, also an American company.
For a country on the brink of collapse we seem to be pretty good with the technology thing.
In fact, of the 150 largest companies in the world approx 1/2 are American. Not bad for a country that only has 5% of the world's population.
Your statement is clearly more a matter of wishful thinking than a statement of fact.
