WHITEHOUSE: Our Technologies permit us to manipulate Time and Space

 

Nathan Hughes & @rallynate - 5h ... The White House Director of Science and Technology just admitted that we have technologies that "permit us to manipulate time and space". @JustXAshton has been right this whole time -But we are capable of so much more. Our technologies permit us to manipulate time and space. They leave distance annihilated, cause things to grow, and improve productivity. As Vice President Vance said in a recent speech, the tradition of American innovation has been one of increasing the capacities of America's workers, of extending human ability so that more people can do more, and, more meaningful work. But unrestricted immigration, and reliance on cheap labor both domestically and offshore, has been a substitute for improving productivity with technology. We can build in new ways that let us do more with less, or we can borrow from the future. We have chosen to borrow from the future again and again. Our choice as a civilization is technology or debt. And we have chosen debt.
