If we were a company instead of a country, and you could apply this to whatever country you're in, ies need to cannibalize themselves. So apple, for example, needs to con dually make a better product such that the last product they made looks like crap. And countries have to do the same thing. You've probably noticed that germany and japan did well with help. But yore recovering from world war too. so burning everything down every now and then is part of the necessary moving forward process. While it is really always the safest thing to do to cannibalize yourself, you're to destroy what you have to try to build it back to a better way
