    Lost already. When half your country doesn’t believe in the basic process of science and the dominant political force has been doing everything it can for 50 years to kill education, you tend to lose the edge in innovation. Heck, even the research that does still happen in the US is more and more being conducted by immigrants.

    The lead is gone, has been gone for a long time, and is not coming back.
