At the 2011 State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama issued a very clear challenge to his nation: “Win the future.” While the future is something that all nations will share in, it is true that the U.S. does like to have the lion’s share. Realistically, even if America begins to wake up from its decade-long hibernation, when dreams and ambition were replaced by a sense of entitlement, it will have to share the honour of economic superpower with other nations like China.
