Johnson: We're Fat and Lazy, the Hungry & Quick Will Eat Our Lunch

"I see you're going back to the windmill in Britain. We Chinese cannot afford that."

I thought the same thing last year when I took my kids on the Millennium Eye in London. I saw these silly windmills on top of office buildings that couldn't possibly provide meaningfully economic power and I knew it was not a sign of progress but of stasis.  Johnson is right, we are fat and lazy to the point where we can indulge all this silly liberalism.
