This is why I want the public and the Governments to focus on pouring money into solar energy. The more attention it gets, the better the technology becomes and the price keeps dropping.
- dennisgorelik 15y agoThank you for the offer, but no. Government should stay away from innovations. It's not where government is efficient at.
- wlievens 15y agoArguably it's not about doing the innovation, it's about accelerating its adoption.
- dennisgorelik 15y agoHow is that government business to decide what innovation to accelerate and which businesses/innovations to decelerate by taxing them (so funds would be available to accelerate cherry-picked innovations)?
- nextparadigms 15y agoWell, I wasn't exactly implying that Government should be the biggest investor in these technologies, just that it should support it, and be its main priority going forward, like writing legislation to help it accelerate, etc.
- dennisgorelik 15y agoPartial government involvement into innovation process would limit the damage, but it still would be damaging. Main priority of the government going forward should be limiting government expenses. That would be the best thing to encourage innovation.
