"you need both groups of sceintist theoratical ones and practical ones"
Well, sombody dropped the ball.
Why do you single me out for being the only one who discredit the sceintist and what they have done or lets say accomplished?
You may have worked in a factory, you may have worked in a hospital, you in all probability will graduate from University.
However when it comes to the working class and the poor and the streets you may need help.
This is how a majority of American people see today's theory makers {that write books and give lectures, this is how the people of the street see todays sceintist {that write books and give lectures} and go on news channels to announce to the American people "we are on the brink"?
This Sceintist and Theoratical era has been "on the brink" so long they should start pitching tents.
As for my discredit of the accomplishments made by this sceintific and theoratical of this time.
Try asking the average guy thats slugging it out a low paying dead end job, try asking the single mother working as a waitress full time and has a part time job.
Ask what the sceice and theorys has done for them or ask what any accomplishments they've made.
And before you say they wouldn't understand forget it, they understand.
The differance is they deal in reality not hearsay and inuindos.
They deal in what is not what might be, maybe ,we're not sure.
They deal with here and now not "on the brink"
Sceintist and theory makers don't have the guts for that kind of life.
While at one time they were envied across the globe as risktakers they would put it all on the line.
Today some "theory maker has an idea" and then what it's run through a computer and then what?
Write a book ,give a lecture,hit the talk shows.
Want more proof, tha Japanese beat us with the low mpg transportation.
I predict if sceintist and theory makers of America does not start taking chances America will fall behind again on another discovery that will be in demand by the international population
Do not missunderstand I am not against technology if anything I don't think it's being used enough.
But you can have the best intellectual computer you can find, but if you don't take the risks it might as well be a paperweight
