This country sort of has messed up priorities, and seem to be blind to our regression.
Valid points BTK, but we need to understand reality.

One has to wonder how intellectual and bright the Chinese people truly are since China has stolen so much in technology and brilliant, innovative ideas from the United States of America. They are constantly trying to suck off anything they can from this country. I wonder how they ever thought of developing a rover to study this surface?
I also agree our country needs to shut off the video games and TV's and inspire the latest generations to educate themselves and develop ambition.
We're really getting closer to the idiom of "Nero fiddled while Rome burned".
