"We are not as good as we once were...and we never were."    I still love my country and I have always known that we could do better, and the first step in that direction is to take the quote to heart.  The realization of imperfection requires real introspective thought and dedication to improvement on that level.  We will never convince some and that goal may neve be reached. It is the journey that matters.

China is bringing online a hypersonic wind tunnel every 6 months.  

They've circumnavigate the globe with a hypersonic missile already.

It's a 6-month to 1 year waiting list to access the very few testing tunnels we have.

It's gonna take 5 - 10 years to get to where they're already at.

Yes, that is a major concern, but my post was primarily regarding our failure to correct years of human rights denial and failure to correct years of 'blind eye' politics.  Our arrogance and steadfast belief that we are the 'greatest country' in the world in the face of much evidence to the contrary smacks of Rome's attitude as the Empire fell around them.

Sure.  But this economy is global.  Whatever happens, everyone's economy is coming along for the ride.

Yes.  Precisely why we must quit thinking in obsolete terms.  Everything is global. Nationalism is a fatal pathway.

We will never reach the goal you are describing until we get free renewable energy worldwide.  Solar and Wind will not cut it.  Nuclear fusion reactors are the way to get us there.  If the world would pool together to get a cheap reliable fusion reactor developed, we would get there quick.  Think tanks are working on it, but its still a ways out.  And maybe by combining resources one could be done sooner.   Or if we can find a huge supply of Dilithium Crystals, that would help too 🙂

The goal may be a Utopian platitude, but the reality is that working in that direction is essential to survival
