Individual rights are the means of subordinating society to moral law.-- Ayn Rand August 05, 2002Technology, for better or worse.Despote environmentalist and "post-modern" myths to the contrary, technology is a Good Thing. Many liberal profs will spread BS about how the 20th century demonstrated the "evils of technology" but I don't buy any such thing. Technological progress is driven by the individual innovation and requires certain conditions to take place. While it is possible for technology to be used for evil purposes, as it was in Nazi Germany, only a society which rewards individual self-interest will progress technological in the long run, because only such a system will encourage men to take risks, devote years of their lives, and attract investment from other men who are free from control to invest in good ideas.
