Don't worry, the rest of us will do the research and reap the rewards. A classic "decline of Empire" decision. America is already falling behind in most things except military investment. In debt up to their eyeballs, in hock for energy from other nations, spending vast amounts of borrowed money on warfare, they are already well down the road the British have already walked. Very soon they will be as irrelevant as Britain but still clinging to the glory days as China, Russia and India partition the world and call in the debt.
