This may be true now, but we've been lazy as of late. Our technocratic ways only work so long as we export new technologies, and as it stands Japan and the UK are looking to surpass us in no time - not to mention that most of our high-tech professionals are imported. |
The UK actually lead in something?? We actually do, cloning and renewable energy sources. And as oil is becoming a dodgy resource to rely upon nowadays, renewables are gonna be a goldmine. |
We lead the cloning business? Excellent. But I think the US still has the lead on GM don't they? [/b][/quote]
To the best of my knowledge they do. Which is why they want everyone else to give up organic food.
You know they have developed plants that doesn't produce any seeds for the next crop, so the farmers keep having to buy more next year. Thats why they want GM everywhere.
I think the best way to solve famine while still retaining capitalism would be for the UN to buy up land all across the world and start producing wheats, barley and potatoes that it distributes across the world to famine riddled zones. But this won't happen because 'shock! horror!' it might damage free trade in these zones.
