Too much prosperity isn't a good thing in the long run.
The PC problem is a result of prosperity without corresponding effort. I hope the correction is a kind one.

i’ve never found a country less racist than the us
So you're saying you've never spent anytime outside the US unless it was at a vacation resort...
I've actually lived multiple years, in over a dozen countries... Certainly no resort times? Maybe you can provide evidence or our a counterexample instead of being full of snark

The only way to think like this is to have never left the US. Unfortunately, too many American grow up not having the exposure of how people speak in the rest of the world. Ever seen an entire soccer stadium erupt into monkey calls when a black player kicks a goal? You don’t know what a climate of racism is. Americans think they are surrounded by racism, they have no idea what that actually means.
I agree with your example but am pretty sure you got me backwards

Probably not, but us westerners are going to be forced to compete with them sooner or later.
Is there proof that working 14 hours 6 or 7 days a week is truly more productive than working 8 hours 5 days a week? Theoretically it should be, but I am just curious if there is any science on it.
Even if it's not, we'll need to compete against the perception that the Chinese are harder working than us.

#95Spent too much time on indulging in political correctness in long-term will hurt the productivity of the SV companies. It adds up the cost to operate. This guy is not wrong for a lot of good points.

Please share which countries you think are less racist.
Brazil, Thailand, UK, France, Poland, Mexico, Canada, and Egypt are right out from my own experience.

You think Canadians aren't harsh on the natives when compared to america. I have never heard such open racism. Egyptians not racist, tell that to my buddy who was just beaten for being white. France, I mean, your kidding right?
