Comment on The British jet engine that failed in the 'Valley of Death'

I don’t see it as a zero sum game. On the contrary, I see advancing science and technology as an investment in our future that makes it easier to take care of our people, and stagnation as making it harder to care for our people

stagnation

Why do you see feeding and housing everyone as stagnation?

  Stop being obtuse. Giving up advancements in science and technology is stagnation. Thinking it’s a good idea to not do anything until people are fed and housed is stagnation. Again, it’s not a zero sum game. Those unfed and unhoused people are not that way because of investments in technology and science, and not doing those things will not affect those people
  
  Focus your nonsense on corruption, exploitation, capitalistic excess, income disparities and most of all elected people with empathy …… that are the cause and could help

    That’s not what I’m suggesting. I’m suggesting giving up some particular, potential advancements in science and tecnology, which is a whole different kettle of fish and does not imply stagnation.

    Why do you think that?
