Just a reminder: we’re #1 on competitiveness

REPORT: “Global Competitiveness Report 2008-2009,” World Economic Forum

From World Economic Forum 2008: US was number one in 2007 and remains there in 2008.

As for the post-American leaders?

China is 30, India is 50, Russia is 51 and Brazil is 64. Super-entrepreneurial—according to Baumol et al.—Taiwan (17) and Israel (23) don’t even come close.

Keep the faith!

Correction: A Quick Scan shows Brazil is 64. Russia is not on the list, but some former republics are.

Ooops I missed them! Russian Federation is 51.

Hope you correct your blog post :)
