The U.S. is going to be completely behind in automation and technology because it's too theoretical and just buying back stock. China is kicking our asses. They have all of our technology and more. Their smartphones are cheaper and faster. They can automate just about everything over there: cars, buses, restaurants, fast food, coffee shops, janitors, factories, hotels, bartenders, etc. We can't even learn to pick oranges. The U.S. is full of complacent idiots and bullshit jobs. They give the third world all of the real work. Wait until that catches up with them! Western labor and education is really nothing special and it's tremendously overpriced. These people have been given too much self-esteem totally disconnected from accomplishments. This is true in both the public and private sectors, which tend to increasingly resemble each other. They have lived their entire lives in a protective bubble.MD Coryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05342743632013663077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148573551417578681.post-35578268678946202312019-02-06T10:00:06.381-08:002019-02-06T10:00:06.381-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.MD Coryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05342743632013663077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148573551417578681.post-1366737890722680072019-02-04T22:28:30.057-08:002019-02-04T22:28:30.057-08:00What is the difference between a true believer who...What is the difference between a true believer who thinks the world was created in seven days and a true believer who thinks super strings actually explain something?<br /><br />The one who thinks the world was created in seven days does not expect the government to fund his beliefs so he can continue to pursue them. <br /><br />I'm all for personal beliefs, and the freedom to pursue them even if they are not popular or accepted, that said, it is incredibly foolish to believe it is the business of the government to fund such pursuits. There is a far greater diversity of thought and creativity when the patronage for such endeavors is diverse as well. <br /><br /> Competition, free enterprise, and war are the greatest drivers and filters of technological innovation. Science for science's sake merely promotes vanity heirarchies, elitist groupthink and publishing gamemanship. CFTnoreply@blogger.com
