Silicon Valley started with the military... And the military won't ever go away.

  Can you name even a single large company that wasn't created by the state? And yes, maybe created means "picked up a tiny company and made it big", I'm treating that as the same (ie. Amazon) Also the whole internet started as a military project. The big reason, especially when it comes to Silicon Valley's tech is that people just don't want it until they can see what it does.

    Well... We're kind of saying the same thing, I just said it from another perspective. I meant to say that the military created it, so the military will stay around to reap the dividends.
