This country has failed to develop its human, intellectual and labor capital to its fullest; thus the many problems we face.

If this country would have solved its racial and women suffrage issues long ago, can you image where this country would be in terms of economic and political stability? Also, we would be having this conversation, now would we?
Take all the issues you desire. I had to earn my positions in aiation the old fashion way. You must be very proud of yourself to have been employed for your suffrage experienced rather than qualification. That's something I would love to brag about.
