You do realise that having superior technology is the reason you are where you are today?

Right?

I mean seriously, if you go around bending your countries scientific efforts to your whims, then you're just asking for a world of pain.

Scientific breakthroughs require free thinking. They require innovation. What they don't need is a figure how dips his hand in progress in order to advance his own political career.

I have a question for you. What happens to a cutting edge technology company who stop coming out with new ideas? new innovations?

They dry up. They get overtaken by the opposition, or taken over. They become a tie for sixth with TableTime and Allied Biscuit.

I spose it is sound business planning. I mean, bush and his cronies have made a lot of money in all this, now all you have to do is crush the hopes and dreams out of everybody else... and BAM, no more competition.

Not in America anyway.

And ya smell like one to.
