American citizens discussing domestic matters. Ladies and gentlemen, it's undeniable that technology has significantly enhanced our quality of life. Nevertheless, it's evident that as a society, we are currently grappling with significant challenges. Meanwhile, in places like Mumbai, Guinea, Argentina, and beyond, the last decade or so has seen substantial improvements in the lives of their inhabitants. Astonishingly, this transformation has occurred without substantial assistance from governmental or organizational bodies, and the specter of corruption looms large.
It's crucial for us, as members of American society, to redirect our focus and gain a broader perspective on the global reality. Despite potential decreases in our own standard of living, the world as a whole has made remarkable progress. It's admittedly challenging to fully grasp this truth, but every time a technology-related job leaves the United States, it represents one more step towards a more equitable world for those individuals who lack meaningful opportunities in their home countries.
- thisgoesnowhere 3y agoIt's just annoying because it's a false dichotomy. I think technology is great but that doesn't mean I have to think unregulated markets are good, or that I have to believe that all growth is positive sum. This is Balaji level hubris.
- okokwhatever 3y agoI didnt talk about unregulation (I believe in regulation), I say that the fight against tech as a whole is wrong and it's the real fight now in the streets.
- thisgoesnowhere 3y agoOh sorry I was referring to Andressens article. I agree with you
