That's fine, why shouldn't other countries do well and achieve success. There was a story about China offering a house and a huge research budget to a Chinese national who just graduated from a US school. And people were upset and kind of negative about it, but I think it is great that China can do it.

Yeah, it would be good to see more international cooperation. And it can and should come from other countries becoming centers of research and learning.
- Bilal_io 9y agoOther countries should achieve success. However, the American view, or better say the view of the powerful countries is that success equals strength and leadership. America wants to maintain that position, they need diplomacy, AI, education, weapons, agriculture... Etc. If you fall down in any of these categories to depend on another nation, that gives them a hand above you.
