Under communist and socialist regimes, or collective based societies the first casualty is individual creativity, and it is creativity that allowed The United States to develop those six primary technologies mentioned in the Washington Times article. This is exactly the reason only The United States makes blockbuster films while no place else in the world can even grasp them. Collective based societies do not freely think—and therefore have their creativity severely limited, which of course destroys their manufacturing base. Most companies in the orient have as a standard policy the dissemination of western creativity looting those efforts and trying to improve them with collective based manufacturing techniques—which they are quite good at. But they cannot create from scratch things—they must copy off the West first to show them the way. Communist countries do not invent because the minds of their people are controlled by the state so there is no incentive to do anything but be a social parasite.
China as a communist country is helpless when it comes to innovation. If they want wonderful airplanes to expand their military muscle, they had to steal the technology from the F-22 and F-35. Lockheed Martin and other American aerospace manufacturers can always go back to the drawing board and develop new technology because they have creative people working for them who are able to do such things—but China with all their billions of minds available cannot—because their people are not free. Without freedom creativity in arts and science do not flourish. Technology does not advance, and their societies remain stifled.
Sure its insulting that China so openly copied off American fighter craft designs—but only because China has been considered equal on the world stage. France, Russia, Spain, India, China and many other countries functioning from socialism and communism are creatively stifled yet have been allowed to play as equal partners to the United States within the eyes of The United Nations. But the equality is an illusion—they are far inferior to American innovation in virtually every economic category because their commitment to communism has destroyed their people’s ability to think creatively. This is also why Russia is so good at deception because much of what they hope to gain on the world stage is obtained through theft—as their history with communism has destroyed the minds of the Russian people. In order to do anything from a manufacturing perspective they must copy western techniques in order to have a prayer. They aren’t doing anything new; they loot off others and use force to advance their cultures.
Invention is developed under less restrictive government intervention. Creative minds hope that there is a payoff for their thinking, so they are incentivized to do so. In communist countries where wealth is stolen from the capable there is no reason to do anything but show up for work and do what some incompetent bureaucrat tells you to do, so nobody makes anything, nobody thinks, and nobody invents. But to appear equal on the world stage to maintain the illusion of equality Russia and China must steal American technology the same way they steal wealth from their own people—each according to their needs. They need the technology America has, so they steal it—rather than figure out why they have to steal it in the first place, and lack the ability to generate their own fresh ideas.
Without America, who would Europe, Russia, China, or Malaysia copy off of? How would they do anything? The answer is they wouldn’t, instead we would see a gradual inclination of society back to the tribal huts of African villages because that is where communism takes countries. Anywhere where collectivism is present, social regression will be noticed—in every case. There isn’t one country where collectivism doesn’t either hold down their culture from making technical leaps forward, or the actual country regresses. The only way countries like China, Russia and other collective based economies from the Orient can prosper is to steal intellectual property from those who have it. Readers here who are outraged by my statements from those other countries cannot dispute this fact. They can be angry that I brought it up, but they cannot refute it.
This is why Americans should not copy off those ridiculous cultures—they should not attempt to compete directly with the Chinese school children or the socialist European families and their screwed up tendencies. When I was angry that my local public school of Lakota proud that China was copying off their education methods it was not something to brag about. It is not a gift when an inferior culture copies off a superior one—it is theft. What’s even dumber is when that same school of Lakota beat on its chest that it was keeping pace with those idiots. That is like saying that children are learning to keep pace with turtles instead of horses. Americans premier attribute is their creativity and their educations should embody large doses of such thinking so to make them better inventors, better job creators in the future, and a better people. Anybody can be a parasitic copy-cat like the Chinese and Russians, but not anybody can create something from scratch the way we do in The United States. And it is about time that we stop apologizing for being so good, and stop letting the world copy off us, then lecture America how to conduct their affairs. That burden rests on them and them alone.
