Here are some key observations:
 * The United States leads in R&amp;D spending:  It has consistently been the highest spender throughout the period, with a significant increase in spending over time.
 * China's R&amp;D spending has grown rapidly: China started with much lower spending in 2000 but has experienced the most dramatic growth, nearly catching up to the US by 2020.
 * Other countries show more moderate growth: Japan, Germany, South Korea, and the United Kingdom have also increased their R&amp;D spending, but at a slower pace compared to the US and China.
 * Spending is adjusted for purchasing power parity: This means the figures are adjusted to account for differences in the cost of goods and services across countries, allowing for a fairer comparison of actual R&amp;D investment.
The chart highlights the growing importance of R&amp;D for economic competitiveness, with the US and China emerging as the dominant investors in this area.</a></label><br><a href="https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/113/878/583/752/528/897/original/a1b2abae5d38b717.jpeg" rel="external">https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/113/878/583/752/528/897/original/a1b2abae5d38b717.jpeg</a></li></ol></footer></blockquote>

The USA can't stop the world from doing science. We can only stop ourselves from doing science.
We're making a conscious choice to make China the world's leading research nation.
Congratulations to China on their ascendancy I guess.
