Wake up, America: The world just isn’t that into you

To much of the world America looks like a declining power, precisely because it is a declining power

It’s pointless to complain when America’s allies ask in so many words, “What have you done for us lately?” To the rest of the world, America looks like a declining power, because it is a declining power.

If America wants to get the world’s attention, it should try doing the things that captured the world’s imagination a few decades ago. America needs the moral equivalent of a moonshot, a rededication to manufacturing leadership, a revived meritocracy that produces business and scientific leadership.

Instead of complaining about how the Germans jilted them, American politicians should take a hard look at where America is going, and do something about it.
