Skip to comments.Falling for Fourth Year, U.S. Slips to World's Seventh Most Competitive (from FIRST in 2008)
Posted on 09/10/2012 10:58:10 AM PDT by Innovative
The U.S. has fallen for the fourth straight year, by two spots, to the seventh most competitive country, according to The Global Competitiveness Report 2012-2013 by the World Economic Forum.
It is now led by Switzerland, Singapore, Finland, Sweden, the Netherlands and Germany.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxbusiness.com ...
The World's Best (and Worst) Economies
"For most of the 20th century, the United States has been considered the world's economic superpower. And up until four years ago, the World Economic Forum would agree. In 2008, it ranked the U.S. as the most globally competitive economy in the world. This year, when the group published its annual Global Competitiveness Report, the U.S. ranked seventh."
And it will probably be down the 100th, if Obama gets reelected.
It's time for all those who are still pouting to face reality that this is not the time to pout and stay home or vote third party and let Obama push the US down the drain in his second term.
When some of us say, this is the most important election of our lifetimes, we are not exaggerating. The fate of our country IS at stake.
In his second term, Obama would be working to see that the US would be 16th...
Globalism has come home to roost....
Bush's fault.
The reason we are not competitive is the ever increasing burdensome regulations, which is stifling businesses.
Beaten by Sweden??? That's like beat by Uganda...
Suze Orman was just on CNN saying how "My God! Are you kidding? Of course we're better off than we were 4 years ago!" And it's all thanks to obama.
If that dried up old piece of filth says it, it must be true!
Considering many of the countries ahead of us are Euroweenies, whose regulation requirements are usually ahead of us, no this is not caused by regulation.
What was she saying before his gay epiphany?
That's easy to fix.
Tax the he!! out of the rich and give government more input into the the day to day operations of business to allow government to more efficiently help these companies when the EVIL senior officers try to make more money on the backs of the middle class and the minorities like faygut employees just trying to make it known that THEY are important people too....
Once government has made us fair again we will be on top for ever.
She is a leftist and the worst dresser I have ever seen.
Competition is bad, man. Because for there to be (toke) like a winner, you gotta have everybody else lose. That's so, like, greedy and selfish, man (exhale)./s
I would say Boosh II helped foster the conditions leading to the train wreck along with the Rat house and senate. Hard in some ways to tell them apart.
During the interview, she said "As an economist..." According to wikipedia, the ugly old hag pig has a degree in SOCIAL WORK!
Have you noticed that someone has tampered with the 'Global Competitiveness' rankings at Wikipedia? Shows United States as #1 in 2009-2010 which isn't true. We fell to #2 Obama's first full year in office. Someone's busy covering for Obama to mislead on his abysmal record.
Obamaeconomics - ever-building the middle class outwards, enough said. =.=
World Economic Forum:
"The Global Competitiveness Report 2012-2013 assesses the competitiveness landscape of 144 economies, providing insight into the drivers of their productivity and prosperity. The Report series remains the most comprehensive assessment of national competitiveness worldwide. Access the data platform to visualize and download the data.
This year's report findings show that Switzerland tops the overall rankings in The Global Competitiveness Report for the fourth consecutive year. Singapore remains in second position with Finland, in third position, overtaking Sweden 4th). These and other Northern and Western European countries dominate the top 10 with the Netherlands, Germany and United Kingdom respectively ranked 5th, 6th and 8th. The United States (7th), Hong Kong (9th) and Japan (10th) complete the top 10. The Report emphasizes persisting competitiveness divides across and within regions, as short-termism and political deadlock continue to hold back the economic performance of many countries and regions. Looking forward, productivity improvements and private sector investment will be key to improving global economies at a time of heightened uncertainty about the global economic outlook.

Full report in pdf:
In GDP per capita, the US is #14!
(see page 385 of the very informative pdf document above)
And in "protection of property rights", that US ranks #42 (page 389)
Go ahead and browse this highly informative and interesting report.
There are many ways to measure business freedom, and Heritage does the best job. You'd be surprised how many "Euroweenies" rank ahead of us. So the reflexive, "if it's Euro, it's bad for business" thing simply is not accurate.
200,000 or so small businesses that closed taking over 3M jobs with them alot because the saw Obama of Roanoke coming. How will the 'Progressives' explain the downturn if Obama is reelected? Oh, that's right! They've got a 'fiscal cliff' (which Howard Dean and Patty Murray insist they breach because it will finish off the 'obstructionist' Republicans once and for all)!!!
No one is surprised by this except those that choose to be. Since The Empty Chair has occupies Our Lawn, America's petticoats have been dragged in the mud deliberately.
We need to vote this !@#$%!&!$!@ out of office. ASAP!
Anger as US inspectors target Swiss chocolate,containing this gem:
But the planned inspections appear to go well beyond health issues to include such details as sales, ownership, employees and the size of company buildings.Note the usual suspects blaming, of all things, people who believe in free and open markets.
Forward. /s
Here at FreeRepublic it is all Boosh II all the time.
I am so damn sick and tired of Freepers like you piling on our side. It is not enough that I have to listen to the Dems constantly saying, It's Bush's fault. I never hear a Dem say, Hey, it is our fault, we screwed up!. But Freepers like you and many more like you, just follow the Dems and MSM talking point and pile on our side.
Shame on you and all other Freepers who point the fingers at Republicans instead of the Statists on Steroids. It is sickening. It is disgusting. Your stupidity is only equaled by your fellow Dummycrats' governing skills. You are Pro-Dummycrat Freepers (deemed so by your words and actions) . You accuse us FReepers of being BushBots while blind to the fact that you are only a useful idiot to the Dummycrats. They use you, Kristol, Cheney (unnecessary Sarah bashing), Rove (Tea Party bashing), et al. and your comments to beat us (Conservatives) over the head. Thanks a lot FRiend!!! Your so called "deep and objective analyses" are no longer required so go to DU where your intellect will be much more appreciated.
You must understand. Sour grapes are a balm to total losers. Their tastebuds are deformed by the crap they feed on to the point they cannot eat and enjoy like normal people.
You are not a good communicator. If you have a problem with what I posted, speak plainly.
If you piss on our side than you joined their side.
There that is speaking plainly.
It's been my experience over a lifetime in International Trade the Europeans are quite Scroogeish in their salaries, benefits, etc. as well they haven't a qualm about delaying payments outrageous periods of time for services rendered, and often simply creating issues to avoid payment for services, or products altogether.
Sort of a Leftist in-your-face sneering "whatcha gonna do about it" business attitude. Quite frustrating to deal with some of them as well infuriating.
Fact of the matter is, most folks were sitting on their butts enjoying the Bush tax cut, maybe complaining about government spending (but it was always the "other Congressman's fault, not theirs"), and failing to listen to warnings (from Bush, Greenspan, and even McCain) about Fannie and Freddie.
There's probably an element of subconsious guilt working to explain their desire to blame everyone but themselves.
The decline of our country continues under the stewardship of Barack Obama.
Suze Orman is a lesbian. Of course she supports Obama.
We just need more taxes and regulations on the evil corporations!
How else are we to afford all of the goodies we provide to the welfare slackers and government do nothings!
I agree almost completely with your post. My comment was to let you know about those who hate Bush are mostly disgruntled eaters of sour grapes.
it is as he wanted........
Most of the things we see in stores made in China.
Obama has borrowed 6 trillion $ in the last 4 years. That is what this economy is running on , borrowing money. all that borrowed money being pumped into the economy and still no jobs being created, still things are bad even with borrowing all those trillions of dollars. This shows how bad things really are. We don't create or produce a damn thing and we can't keep on borrowing at this rate forever. As long as they allow the ever increasing borrowing of trillions and the money still has value then it will SEEM like things haven't collapsed yet but we all know that this borrowing cannot continue for too much longer.If you borrowed a 100 thousand $ per year then you'd live good as long as they kept lending to you but you know that can't be forever.
This obama monster, these democrats and their damn socialism have destroyed the greatest country ever.
Cool off rurgan
You're turning downright purple.
You should cool off also - stress is unhealthy for you.
I was here posting with Jim Rob when Clintoon was Commander-in-Sink. I voted for Mr. Bush once - he didn't do anything to earn my vote the 2nd term but he did a lot to prepare the way for the Kenyan and I don't have to go thru the list.
Been a proud FReeper and a conservative no matter what you may think. (dont tell me you were badmouthing Jim Rob too before he decided to endorse Mitt?) I will stick with my values no matter who says what - Live with it, because I can.
I dont have to sling derogatory comments back at you but it really doesn't bother me. And please don't go away mad or write your Opus — stick around here with me, things are going to get very interesting!
Apparently, some people have a problem with other people having too much freedom. Too funny.
They've been drifting back since the OWS tent cities started folding up. :)
Never understood the logic: it as if the 2010 Super Bowl winner "prepares" the way for the team that wins the 2011 Super Bowl.
Probably because creeping socialism/Marxism isn't particularly logical? Bush pandered to the left from the get-go, this only stunned me a couple of times and then it was pretty obvious what he was made of.
We get a Dem, we get a RINO, then another Dem, etc — all leading the population down the merry path to the loss of our liberties. If you don't see how Bush II was a part of that progression, I cant help you see.
2. I am now for anybody but Obama.
3. Having the Chicago Mob running the world's most powerful and moral country in the world for another four years is unimaginable.
4. RINOs, FReepers and so called "conservatives" who bad mouth our own leaders instead of constantly pounding the Chicago Mob are basically doing the Chicago Mob's job. Period. THAT PISSES ME OFF.
5. RINOs, FReepers and Mark Levin equate Bush's spending to Obama's Stimulus Bill that was baselined into the budget. That is how our deficits increased to over the Trillion Dollar level. THAT WAS NOT BUSH's FAULT.
6. Obama and the Senate have not come up with a budget for almost four years....Bush's Fault.
7. Because of point 5, the Military is facing sequestration. Bush's Fault!
I can go on and on. It irritates me beyond words how we attack our own instead of attacking the Chicago Mob. It is beyond stupid. Obama is literally the enemy and yet RINOs, FReepers and so called "Conservatives" focus on Bush. UNFREAKINGBELIEVABLE!
I personally don't care who you vote for or if you even vote. But don't let me catch you ever complaining about Obama's America. You are part of the problem if you let him get a way with it by allowing him to win reelection. I won't do anything except point out your stupidity for letting him get reelected.
And no, Romney is not Obama. They may both be liberals, but one is out to destroy America the other is not.
Huge difference in my mind.
OK, you're forgiven. Mad, well I am mad as hell! Can't help it. And just because I am mad as hell does not mean I will quit or write up an opus. Hopefully we won't be living in "interesting times".
I hear you!
We Must Defeat The Obamanation, his administration, his Czars.
It's entirely possible that you are part of the problem.
Believe what you will. My choice is and will always be to support conservatives. Insults will only strengthen this resolve. I will surely be here as I have since the Clinton days.

The AFC West may get boring very quickly.
Week 10 of the NFL season brought some clarity in the division.
The Denver Broncos showed they are clearly the best team in the division, while the San Diego Chargers and the Oakland Raiders showed they are nowhere ready to make a playoff push.
Once again, the Broncos were impressive in a 36-14 win at Carolina. It was Denver's fourth straight victory with three of the wins coming on the road.
Denver is now 6-3 and it is rolling with the easiest remaining schedule in the NFL. San Diego fell to 4-5 after a 34-24 loss at Tampa Bay on Sunday. It has lost four of the past five games. Oakland was blitzed, 55-20, by Baltimore and is not a factor with its 3-6 record. Kansas City is 1-7 and it plays at Pittsburgh on Monday night. The only question about the Chiefs' remaining season is if they will get the No. 1 pick in the draft.
The Broncos could put a stranglehold hold on the division before Thanksgiving.
Denver hosts San Diego on Sunday. If the Broncos win it will essentially have a four-game lead in the division with six games to go. Denver already beat the Chargers.
It was that game, on Oct 14, in which the division started to turn. The Broncos turned a 24-0 halftime deficit into a stunning 35-24 win. The Broncos have been one of the NFL's best teams since and the Chargers have been in a daze since.
With quarterback Peyton Manning putting together an MVP season, Denver looks dangerous with nearly every phase of the game playing at a high level.
Of course, anything can happen in the final seven weeks of the season, but unless something dramatic happens, the events of Week 10 showed us the Broncos could put away the division title and work on becoming January-strong in a matter of weeks.

Wanderlust (2012)
Critic Consensus: It isn't always as funny as it should be, but Wanderlust benefits from an extremely talented cast and some of David Wain's most confident, assured work behind the camera.

All Critics (136) | Top Critics (41) | Fresh (81) | Rotten (55) | DVD (1)
It's hard to remember a comedy so populated with good character bits.
You know you're in trouble when not even the improvised scenes and fluffed out-takes are funny.
A messy but occasionally very funny satirical comedy...
Rudd might not be the subtlest straight man in movies, but, as of this moment, he's the best.
Being taken under Apatow's wing may have been a big career break for writer-director David Wain, but this lacks the sharp personality of some of his earlier movies.
Audience Reviews for Wanderlust
Little bit disappointing. Had its moments, but wasn't consistently funny. It was okay, I guess, but I wish I hadn't bought it unseen. I usually like Jennifer Anniston's rom coms. Re watched 6/15 I still don't like this movie. It's actually fine up until they reach the commune. I like the beginning set in New York. I think it's the setting that doesn't work for me. I don't know people like this and I don't want to. Selling this.
Super Reviewer
Kind of painful to watch. I love Paul Rudd, but even he couldn't raise this sinking ship. The subject matter could have been really funny, but the way this storyline was presented just seemed to miss the mark every time. Pretty underwhelming film. Too bad.
Super Reviewer
"Wanderlust" is exactly what the title suggests -- it wanders with its narrative with very little punchlines or humor to make it memorable. Paul Rudd is always good and always entertaining to watch, but with the lackluster script and boring plotline, "Wanderlust" is a pass altogether.

Hi guys,
As I've (also) experience awful support for this plugin in their website, I came here so who can help me with a more general code problem.
The live search widget is functioning to search for the title and description data for each product, but in my case I want it only to search for the product title.
Here's the function that that queries the search:
function wpsc_gc_start_search_query() {
global $wp_query, $wpsc_query;
$product_page_id = wpec_get_the_post_id_by_shortcode('[productspage]');
$post = get_post( $product_page_id );
$wp_query = new WP_Query( array( 'pagename' => $post->post_name, 'the_content' => $post->post_content ) );
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'wpsc_gc_live_search_pre_get_posts' );
remove_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'wpsc_gc_live_search_pre_get_posts' );
list( $wp_query, $wpsc_query ) = array( $wpsc_query, $wp_query ); // swap the wpsc_query object
$GLOBALS['nzshpcrt_activateshpcrt'] = true;
Is the better to use "get_the_title" or filter the "post_content"?
Thanks a lot in advance!

To the Editor.
—Dr Sorum's1 Commentary is spot on. When I call my attorney, I can hear the meter clicking in the background, and the bill arrives within days after the telephone call. The time is overdue for physicians to receive compensation for the extraordinary amount of "free services" that we render over the wire. The time consumed is real time, the judgments require expertise, the advice given has consequences, and the courts have established our liability for the consequences of those calls. Even as an academic physician with a limited practice, I find myself spending an extraordinary amount of time in the evening and on weekends making telephone calls to patients, either because the patients are unreachable during the workday or because I simply have no other time to make the calls. The burden certainly would be lighter were I to receive modest compensation. I hope Sorum's proposal

Oral History
My first book, The Nashville Way: Racial Etiquette and the Struggle for Social Justice in a Southern City, was a community study of race relations and the Movement in Nashville, Tennessee. It focused on the evolving relationship between racial law and racial custom (as exhibited by a number of different settings within the city) and how this relationship conditioned the cultural attitudes of whites and African Americans. The book was awarded the Tennessee History Book Award (from the Tennessee Historical Commission & Tennessee Library Association) and the Arthur Miller Centre First Book Prize (from the British Association of American Studies and the University of East Anglia).
My current research agenda is preoccupied with several assorted projects. I am currently completing a teaching-oriented textbook on the 1960 sit-ins, and an edited monograph of oral histories on the African-American experience in Pittsburgh. Future project themes include nonviolent direct action and post-civil rights era black politics.
Postgraduate Supervision
I welcome inquiries about postgraduate supervision in my research areas.

The perfect gifts are the kind of things you dig, but wouldn't actually buy yourself. For most guys, this means stuff like accessories and loungewear. Gloves, scarves, and umbrellas are always a solid investment for the season, but so is a nice pair of pajamas or a comfortable bathrobe. You might not need anymore hoodies, sweaters, or pants, so why not turn them into the sort of things you don't have, you don't necessarily need, but certainly would be nice to own?

Extreme Novice here... my current wordpress blog is at prospectinsder.wordpress.com.

How do i do this?
Extreme Novice here... my current wordpress blog is at prospectinsder.wordpress.com.
I own a domain and would like the blog to carry the domain of prospectinsider.com, without the wordpress in the url...
How do i do this?
Presently you cannot, though word is they plan to offer such a feature, eventually:
Also note that as we support the self-hosted version of WordPress around here, help for and questions about wp.com blogs is best found at the following location:
it is always best to host your blog on your domain.
you need to register and buy your own domain and install and setup the latest wordpress on your host.
if you need help setting this up, feel free to ask here or PM me.
I'm a novice, so I apologize for the elementary questions...
I have registered my domain with GoDaddy.com... if I buy hosting services, how difficult is it to install wordpress on it?
If you could help in any way, I'd buy a rug... seriously...
Just read carefully these articles and you'll be fine: Getting_Started_with_WordPress#Installation
Can wordpress be used in this manner via local host?
Meaning, will i be able to transfer my current blog to wordpress 2.0 (or the latest version of) and then transfer my new domain (minus the 'wordpress' portion) to the new wordpress software?
I hope nothing I did with the installation of wordpress screwed up my current blog..
is that possible?
For the first time ever, my blog says "updating with the most current database.
Makes no sense.
jason, doing an installation of WP on your own domain will in no way effect your wp.com hosted blog. You should be able to import your wp.com into your hosted install via the RSS import Importing_Content#Importing_from_an_RSS_feed
And no need to buy a rug, just report back with any issues, and we'll get you on your way to manning your own blog
Will this work with a current wordpress blog, too?
I know I sound like an idiot, but I'm learning as I go here.
Define "current wordpress blog"...
I have a wordpress blog at prospectinsider.wordpress.com.
What I'm trrying to do is use the wordpress software (2.0) to get use of the full features and ultimately use it on my host.
OK, since they are both "wordpress"... calling one of them "a wordpress blog" - is redundant and confusing :) That's why my request above.
To make sure that everybody gets what you are saying:
1. one is a wordpress.COM hosted blog
2. one is a blog hosted at your domain (hosted somewhere with a hosting company)
We do not support #1 here - they have their own forum.
The RSS import works with everything that has a feed/rss capability.
Registering a name with a company does not mean you have to host with them.
I would use a host that has cpanel (Bluehost, A Small Orange) if you are new to sites simply because Godaddy's site is crammed full of so much junk trying to sell you more stuff instead of just letting you manage your site. I'm not saying they are a bad host - they are not - but their interface is gobsmackingly crap.
I have registered with Godaddy before and hosted elsewhere. Like podz said, you do not need to host with them. Lunarpages also has cpanel and you can do a Fantastico install of WordPress blogs with them. Very easy to use and I've been quite happy with them.
Thats good to hear, thanks.
I'll check out the above suggestions.
You guys rock. And gals!

I have "Remove Categorías Base" and "Remove Etiquetas Base" OFF but I wp-htaccess-control removes them…
i have pretty much same problem now none of settings keep saved
That was a bug introduced on 3.0, a few other users reported it.
Please check 3.1 and let me know how it goes.
Also, in such situations you should temporarily revert to the last working version of the plugin which can be found at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-htaccess-control/download/
yes i got latest version installed Wp htaccess Control 3.1
i am going to try that 3.0 i dont remember did i have this same problem there
ok so 3.0 keeps my settings saved :p
3.0 is not stable, please prefer 184.108.40.206.
So, back on 3.1, have you tried "Reset all rules" and then configuring everything again?
Settings are getting saved for me on multiple environments (and some other users). Please confirm you have tried this before I can help you any further.
Also is this happening to all settings or just a few?
ok so did update to 3.1 and and all rules are gone except wordpress default
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
+ my own custom settings which are not set by this plugin
and i tryed now reset all rules and set back some rules clicked dashboard and come back to this plugin setting page and again i see only default wordpress rule and yes this happens for all rules i set
but no problem i am back to 18.104.22.168 :>
blobo, would you mind trying again with 3.2.1?
oops sorry for late answer 3.2.1 works perfectly now no problems thank u :>
Great, thank you for reporting back!
