Flu, you sound inconsistent. After everything you said, why do you say the merger is bad for engineers? Just let capital work and we will all be richer.
BTW, the average Singaporean has health care and owns a home more valuable than the average American’s. The Singaporean has better education and is more likely to participate in the 21st century economy.
The deplorables are not subsidized. They are becoming toothless opioid addicts. They will become depressed and start shooting themselves up more frequently. Oh well, such is life.

Also, define motivation … not everyone is motivated to kill themselves for 60-70 hours a week at the expense of family and social life. The US (and some Asian countries) has managed to turn this into a virtue.

The US started it and the Asians have learned and are now doing it better.
Funny but the deplorables are not that smart to compete in tech innovation. They are best at building infrastructure such as oil rigs, airports, dams, solar farm, high speed trains, etc… But they don’t support any of it except fossil fuels and military related. I predict that one day, China Rail will have a contract and will layout the capital to build a line here in the USA. Ultimate humiliation.
