Are you one of those people that said the PC or the Internet would never take off?

Actually, I invested in MSFT shortly after their IPO, which left me wealthy enough to be able to sit here and respond to your often silly and naive posts, which I really shouldn't waste any more time doing.

You are one of those people that always looks for the negatives and can't see how to solve problems.

I have complete faith in human ingenuity, in tandem with free minds and free markets, being able to accomplish just about anything. Unlike yourself, I also know what damage that the heavy grey hand of government meddling in the economy and production will accomplish. There's a ton of historical perspective available to demonstrate that fact.

And also unlike you, I don't equate pipe dream fantasies with reality. Indeed, if the government had been meddling in your "tech arena" to the same extent as it currently is in energy production and usage, we'd all still be using an abacus and slide rule.
