America Held Captive to Utopian Ideology

The article, "America held captive to Utopian ideology," by Patrick J. Buchanan, was very interesting to me. The title basically sums up the whole article. It is basically an article about how and why China is so far ahead of the United States in the production area. Since America is too busy being the worlds police, they are not devoting enough of their times and services to what would really help them to excel as a country, since that is the "Utopian" way for the Chinese and America just isn't catching on. "Before the financial collapse, the U.S saving rate stood at zero percent of family income, In China, it ranged between 35 percent and 50percent," that is just one fact used in showing how well China is doing opposed to the United States. Although America is represented as the best and most powerful, in some aspects it really isn't.
