>>> Nor will innovation. If there isn't consumer demand, neither will drive growth.

Of course, you are correct.

When Apple created the iPhone in 2007 it didn't drive growth, did it?

How much demand was there for smartphones in 2006 vs five years later? Where do you think that demand came from? Obama stimulus? LOL.

How much demand for tablets six months before iPad was released?

And just to show you I am not a technology bigot I will tell you that in about 1964 when my dad opened his first fast food restaurant, that was innovation. No one in our are had seen anything quite like it. And my nephew who now runs it innovates to this day. And it drives demand.

You do not have a clue about business or economics.
