The state of US education? More worried about guns, genitals and historical correctness.
so you post an article about the activity of science articles submitted
and i agree it is good that this is happening
i also agree with the article you posted that cooperation benefits all involved
and what do you post in response?
did you read the article you posted?
and if you did read it, the above is what you took away?

Caroline Wagner, a science and policy researcher at the Ohio State University in Columbus, who has published research1 suggesting that China has overtaken the United States on top-cited papers, says that, when measured on âsimple bibliometrics like productivity and citations, China has outperformed expectationsâ.
She adds, however, that it still âsignificantly trailsâ behind other nations âin its capacity to absorb and apply knowledgeâ, and that the impact of the decline in its research collaborations with some major countries, such as the United States, remains uncertain.
This, Wagner says, âportends ill for domestic progress. Numerous scholars have demonstrated that Chinaâs most-cited works are produced in collaboration with other nations, particularly the United States.â
At a time of intense partisan polarization, bashing China is one issue on which both parties canât get enough. Republicans sense that Chinaâs rise â and the supposed American decline that accompanies it â serves as a useful political weapon against President Joe Biden.
âThe second thing thatâs happening, and thatâs more concerning for me,â Michael Brenes, Non-Resident Fellow at the Quincy Institute, told Responsible Statecraft, âis that the Biden administration is pursuing a policy where it believes the China threat can be served to revive or renew American democracy and American foreign policy, in a post war on terror era.â Meaning, he added, that everything from domestic renewal to industrial policy to foreign policymaking is being justified on that basis. (...)
The way in which this is being framed caters to the most hawkish members in Congress, according to Brenes. But heâs not confident that the trend will be reversed anytime soon, because targeting a common enemy is âjust too convenient for politicians in the United States, particularly at the moment where weâre getting concerned about the anxiety of American power, and concerned about the future of American dominance and hegemony.â
US importers bore almost the entire burden of tariffs that President Donald Trump placed on more than $300 billion in Chinese goods, raising the cost of goods bought by American companies, a report by an independent US government agency found.
The US International Trade Commission, a bipartisan entity that analyzes trade issues, found an almost one-to-one increase in the price of US imports following the so-called section 301 tariffs, it said in a report on Wednesday. The report came in response to a directive from Congress as part of a law passed last year.
The conclusions back the longtime assertion of US Chamber of Commerce and independent academic economists that the cost of the tariffs hurt American firms rather than those in China, and contradict Trumpâs claim that his trade partner paid the ultimate cost of the duties.
President Joe Bidenâs administration has kept the tariffs on imports of Chinese goods in place for more than two years and is currently undertaking a review of the duties to evaluate their effectiveness and decide if they should continue. (...)
