RED FLAGS | In an age of instant gratification and permanent greed, the long game has become terribly boring. We don’t like to play it, let alone together. Societal pursuits must deliver results today, before noon, not in a hundred years. And it’s fun, and it’s fast. But it won’t last. Say what you will about China—and say it loudly and freely—but strategy, there, is a multigenerational endeavor: reap tomorrow's fat rewards by passing up today’s skinny pleasures.
