This started with
dumbing down the schools. Math was not taught effectively and basics were
missed. New Math was unnecessary and distracted students away from the basics.
Common Core Math caused moms to create a prolonged protest against it.
The popular culture
celebrated irrelevancy. If technology could make something fun, it was made
even if it was unnecessary.
US technology was used
to develop products that were irrelevant. We already had phones and smart-phones
were not really needed. Facebook wasn’t needed. M-TV wasn’t needed. Texting
wasn’t needed.
There were
advancements in technology that were relevant and that began with the PC and
the productivity increase it brought.
The electronic
production of text and data allowed us to abandon paper records. This allowed
barcode scanning to streamline inventories. Everybody could produce their own
typed records. Software allowed the transfer of records to control all
administrative functions. This created a cyber security problem we need to fix,
but we haven’t.
Electronics technology
had advanced to allow wireless connections for phones, computers and other
devices. Advances in digital signal processing allowed phones to be converted
from analog to digital. TV transmission advanced to allow flat screen monitors.
Chips were developed to handle more transactions and storage. The development
of microelectronics allowed for surface-mount components on circuit
boards. Battery development created the
hybrid car. Everything got smaller,
cheaper and faster.
The internet was
needed to replace public libraries, magazines, newspapers and TV news, but that
didn’t happen.
The internet was
needed to cost reduce education, but that didn’t happen. The education
bureaucracy protects its own.
US companies stopped
protecting their intellectual property.
They entered
agreements with China to allow intellectual property theft. US companies
invited “partners” who were here to steal technology.
The Global Economy
hoax was launched and US companies became “citizens of the world”. But they
should have known that all economies are national. Consequently, Asia dominates
technology.
US auto companies got
distracted with muscle cars and lost the US market. All other US manufacturers
were encouraged to off-shore manufacturing after NAFTA in 1993.
US technical national
security secrets cannot be shared with our Globalist-leaning companies and
universities. Our development of
technology for military purposes must be done by loyal, vetted defense
contractors.
