Not really. Average American is already wealthier than the average Chinese. We need better college policies not giving away subsidized loans to useless majors. You should allocate the grants to the fields the country needs, including trade schools.

China does other things as well, like totally ignore environmental issues. You want to go down that road?

China doesn't ignore environmental issues, it's just more willing to carefully spend its ecological health. That is not to say that their bets will pay off, but we may also find that it will be China who leads the world in ecological tech.
