I am not sure if George Bush trashed the US economy. He may have been one of the insignificant actors (do you think he was a significant actor?) but the US economy had been going down for many decades. So, I think it is unfair to the other less or more significant contributors to give this credit to George Bush. In the past, brain drain was from the rest of the world to the US. Now, it is reversing. Why do you think many Chinese and Indian academics trained here in the US are going back to their countries, not to mention many academics from other countries? The "Roman Empire" is collapsing! Bye bye Rome! Best, Sabri _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
