[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I can't fathom anyone would think anything other than the profit motive led us to the great developments of the computer. IBM, Intel, Microsoft? [/ QUOTE ] it's my understanding the big vaccuum computers of the 40's were built by government for government stuff, cause they were extremely expensive. I'm talking bout the origin of computers. [/ QUOTE ] The act of making computers price competitive for business and consumers was driven by the profit motive. We already have solar, its just not competitive. If there is a way to make solar cheaper than oil the market will find a way without Government intervention. If throwing money at a problem without regard to profits could solve problems then the $6.1 trillion spent in this country to fight poverty would have made a dent in poverty.
