I only buy bits and pieces. For example, R&D money, I agree with. Education and the shortage of engineers is not urban legend. Our major universities are a HUGE source of R&D and a lot of that knowlege is being exported for free with foreign students who return to their homelands and leave the dregs for U.S. based companies. I agree with the 0-18 year old figures on our neglect in education. I've seen far better first hand overseas.
