How America Can Lose the Fourth Industrial Revolution

America won last generation's Third Industrial Revolution, defined by digital computation and communications.

Competition among nations, however, is not static, and China may yet win the Fourth Industrial Revolution, defined by metadata and artificial intelligence.

Should this take place, the consequences to America will be devastating: we will be less stable, poorer, and likely no longer in charge of our national destiny.

Due largely to American incompetence, and a foolish elite uniparty consensus, China is currently leading the race.

But the competition is not yet over. And America may still win.
