    Many folks in higher education in the UK have been bemoaning a generation of genii lost to business and the City who put their talents and creativity to the good of making profit rather than inventing and humanity.

    Many more have their funding and direction tilted to capital, too.

    The WHO does good work, but it’s as much a bureaucractic force as a medical one, and I think due to the desire for geopolitical clout the US cared more about the latter than the former.
    Not that way that the US doesn’t also do some medical outreach with military missions as the PRC also does.
    But it does make there a minor difference in kind. After all, the selfish jerk who goes around fulfilling people’s dreams just for his own selfish satisfaction of feeling like a good person still is.

    More reasonable than the embargo never existing is it finishing in the 90s following the end of the Cold War. Sadly US face couldn’t allow that to happen.
