Joel Kurtzman persuasively shows why all the talk about Americas decline is not only baseless but dead wrong. Our best days, are, in fact, ahead of us.
Four transformational forcesunrivaled manufacturing depth, soaring levels of creativity, massive new energy sources, and gigantic amounts of capital waiting to be investedhave been gathering steam. When combined they will provide the foundation for a much stronger economy, robust growth, and broad-based prosperity that will propel the United States to new heights.
One endlessly repeated anxiety is that we dont make anything here, anymore. The reality, though, is that the US is the worlds dominant manufacturing powerand growing. American companies produce 20 percent of the worlds goods in the US and perhaps another 15 to 20 percent outside our country. And much of what we make is recession-proofsuch as software, jetliners, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food.
Kurtzman reveals the stories of the unsung heroes who are the creative force leading the second American century, describing the payoff of the investment in our best minds. American companies have stunning levels of talent and creativity at work in the worlds fastest growing economic sectorsbiotech, pharmaceuticals, computer hardware and software, telecommunications, advanced manufacturing, materials science, and aeronautical and space engineering. In these fields, Americans are without peer and consistently break new ground.
We are coming to the realization that America is no longer beholden to the despots of foreign energy. Thanks to advances in technology developed in the US, we now have among the worlds largest energy reserves, and are richer in energy resources than Saudi Arabia and second only to Russia.
These three strengthsmanufacturing, soaring levels of creativity, and energy independencewill be magnified and synergistically combined with the unprecedented amount of capital that now lies idle. US companies of all types are hoarding cash and securities worth more than $4 trillionan amount larger than the worlds fourth largest economy, Germany. When the money starts flowing and is invested, it will rapidly propel every part of the economy forward.
