now there are four billion participants from china and india to eastern europe and southeast asia thate not participants before. but we act like we did 20 years ago and bragged about winning the olympics 20 years ago as opposed to what do we have to do to win today. we need american competitiveness agenda. we need to get our competitive mojo the way it used to be when our parents and grandparents got us in the position we are in today. there are a number of things we need to address. debt and energy policy, math and science education. the infrastructure. this is what we need to do to be globally competitive. the part that scares me is we are finding it so difficult to do what is the glaringly obvious problem in which we had a glaringly obvious solution. i agree on $4 trillion as a minimum because if you look at the baseline we used in simpson bowls we got $20 trillion in debt in ten years if we didn't do anything and that assumed the reduction of war spending. assumed 4.6% a year nominal gdp growth and assumed medicare growth would moderate from 10% in the last decade to 6% this decade
