Stalin should not have stopped till the sea. China is willing to do what it takes to win. They have cut deals with evil countries to get resources to allow them to become the next hegemony. The US might never have stayed on top for quite some time if China had not seized the means of production

Yeah, eventually. Resources would stay the same. Money is fake. That would have no reason to change anything.
General mismanagement? They went from a feudal dirt based monarchy to the first spacefairing civilization in a lifetime. Their management was far better than ours. We just had a head start and the power to do more evil.
Nah, I don't knife fight people in the mall because that shit sucks and I have been educated about it. It isn't because society will deny me a Cinnabon if I do.
No, we can just wait for America to fail and let China do it.
I can find a article fomer cia agents talking about how they did it. They would det fields on fire, break important farm equipment stuff like thst.
There is no amount of efficiency that is more important than momentum. Consider the robber barons. I could make a perfectly effective business but they could just bribe a senator to get a tax cut and beat me. The market can only evaluate one data set and lying cheating and stealing all fall outside the scope of that.
Education. Same way we all learned not to kinfe fight people at the mall.
Some people argue that. Also we did industraial and agricultural sabotage to them. Threatened to annihilate the world and and did several wars with them. So not exactly a fair test
You got the money for that? They tried it back in thr 70s. The banks froze them out and bought their assets on the cheap after the sabotaging
I'd rather people not suffer personally.
Resources are real, but many doesn't correctly correlate with resources. Look at all the times everything has fallen appart when they try to use money for stuff and people realize that. Look at 08, look at the current covid depression.
