America in Decline

America is in decline and has been for over six decades, of that there canbe little doubt. The reasons for our countrys economic and moral decayare detailed in part 1 of this book. In part 2, I will suggest steps, short ofa second revolution, that should be taken to rescue our floundering shipof state. Finally, in part 3, I predict what is likely to occur if we do nothave the courage to institute the changes required to restore the nationseconomy and put its citizens back to work. I believe, as will become clear after reading the first few paragraphs ofAmerica in Decline, that the decreasing cognitive ability of our citizensover the past half century has played a major role in Americas fall fromgreatness. Our failure to recognize the importance of intellect, especiallythe concept of inherited cognitive ability, is largely responsible for most ofAmericas social and economic woes.
