    Good for them.

    I’m a scientist, but I’m not about that whole confrontational competitive nation-states super-power nonsense. If the US doesn’t care about science, that sucks for me, but I’m happy to see the work get done and the world made a better place.

      Cue the Anakin-in-a-field-with-Padme meme.

    Does the US even want to be a scientific superpower?

    That’s what happens when you vote for a stable genius. No sympathy.

    It also helps that China is run by engineers and murica is run by lawyers (and clowns)
