Sometimes you come across an article that seriously makes you question the credibility of a journal. I mean .. seriously?!

Case in point:

It is rather unfortunate that some of the less worthy intellectual and physical products of our society get so much visibility and (largely deserved) criticism abroad, whereas our contributions to science, to lengthening life expectancy, to improving through good products the quality of life of people worldwide are taken for granted. It is also unfortunate that freedoms (and tolerance and generosity) so much at the basis of our economic (and the world’s) prosperity and ability to innovate are so unappreciated and misunderstood.

Are you kidding? I question these contributions Ammendola stresses and doubt the US will ever let another nation take these 'contributions' for granted.
