I am eagerly watching the decline of the US Empire and hoping that it’s end will finally break the logjam of technological stagnation that plagues the world.
Remember when President Crater was putting up solar panels about 40 years ago? Do we have (hot) fusion now? Nope. How about a cure for cancer? Free energy? Cures for MS/ALS or diabetes or AIDS? Do our cars still mostly run on gasoline? Flying cars? Have we put men on Mars or back to the moon? I can go on… yes, we have the internet and neat phones but the fundamentals have barely budged at all. And then there’s the economy! Obstructive political parties and ‘old boys networks’ ARE conspiracies.
