“Doing what we already know how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar.”

True progress happens when we build something entirely new. Most people just copy what already works. That only gets us more of the same.

Monopolies are usually the only companies that can afford to care about their employees. Competition forces everyone else to fight for survival. That struggle eats all the profits.

“What important truth do very few people agree with you on?”

Technology is the only way to do more with less. Without it, we eventually run out of resources. It is the only thing that keeps us from moving backward.
