- matz1 7y agoWell, everything has trade off.
- ravenstine 7y agoExactly. Having a common culture and set of values seems more important to them than innovation.
- matz1 7y agoWhich is not necessarily bad thing.
- Spooky23 7y agoStagnate or stabilize? History will ultimately be the judge, but I truly worry about the sustainability of many things in the US. I grew up in a rural area of New York, which is basically rotting away. I worked on a farm as a kid that was continuously operated since the 1680s that is suddenly not viable. Life is great for my family, thanks to good education, luck, and good decisions, but I worry about my kids’ future.
- Aperocky 7y agoIf your kids going to be a farmer and only a farmer, I think it's quite right to worry about it. Innovation is not constrained in one country - whatever happens elsewhere will be felt, the only difference is where the benefits end up.
