Short answer: you can't get there from here.
Longer answer: we don't deserve any better than we've got, because it
doesn't take a high IQ to have a functioning moral compass. And I'm not
talking about that traditional substitute for a moral compass; that crutch

Eric Schmidt said
We have been world leaders in [technological]
innovation for generations. It has driven our
economy, employment growth and our rising prosperity.
[..] We can no longer rely on
There's an economic gorilla in the room no one takes seriously: War.
We're now paying for two wars that are each a greater strain on our
economy than the recession and the stimulus bills. Innovation has

I think Schmidt is dreaming, that the USA had an innovation policy that
worked, that it could have an innovation policy that would work in the
