Very interesting read...our own incredible technology is actually slowing us down....
To be sure, the service industry does brilliantly when facing human engineering problems -- basically, repairing things that are broken. Such technical solutions do not depend on absolute understanding, since you can stent a heart blood vessel without knowing every gene related to heart disease. But when the scientists and the managers are separated to such a degree as they are today, medical progress on the whole must necessarily suffer.
“So you think that money is the root of all evil?” said Francisco d’Anconia. “Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them.” … “Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?” - Atlas Shrugged
