Gergen: Can the U.S. still compete?
http://www.cnn.com/2011/OPINION/01/25/gergen.obama.competitiveness/index.html

For most of the 20th century, we were No. 1 in the world in education;
today, we are ninth in the proportion of young people with college
degrees, 18th in high school graduation rates among industrialized
nations and 27th in the proportion of science and engineering degrees.
China now graduates more English-trained engineers than the U.S. and
has become the world's No. 1 exporter in high technology
