I think ambition is good. Greed is good. I think parenting when the kids are younger and preparing kids to properly handle school and be analytical thinkers is what will help people do better not throwing money at the school system. I think its important that, while parents push their kids to achieve more, they also work towards what the children want and what will make them happy. I completely agree with this post and nearly every other post you make sadly i should be able to say that about alot more people and can’t which means we’re fucked lol --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/for-those-who-care-why-usa-overall-competitiveness-is-decreasing/261715)._
