The United States has a serious competitiveness problem. The U.S. is experiencing more than just the challenges related to a severe cyclical downturn ‹ the problem is structural and long-term. The reasons behind it are complex, and the solutions are equally complex. Getting the U.S. back on track will require a long-term strategy, significant changes, and collaboration for the common good.
