The US does nothing to ward against rampant foreign propaganda and the wholesale evisceration of our industrial infrastructure, demonizes our educational institutions and cuts research grants down to a miniscule fraction across all disciplines, caters to anti-intellectual religions, does nothing to curtail the constant sale of industrial secrets and now suddenly we notice we're slipping inevitably from our technological advantage. Bizzare how that happens.
All true but hardly unique to the US. China is not exactly a proponent of academic freedom and intellectual curiosity.
I am not familiar with China's academic climate, but I find it difficult to imagine it's worse than situation here.
But even if it was, they produce twice as many PhDs; it would have to be really, really bad to be less effective overall.
They produce twice as many PhDs, but have over four times as many people.
Research papers aren't a per-capita thing, whether they have 4x as many people or 400x as many people, scientific advancement is scientific advancement.
