People with ethics don't typically have what it takes to become billionaires (i.e. a lack of ethics and a single minded desire to accumulate wealth at all costs.)

Actually, Trump is not a singular cause. He was not the first. Back under reagan, he killed a great deal of our civilian oriented R&D saying that private business can do it , while moving some to DARPA. Thankfully, DARPA still funded basic science.
Then W did more cuts, but pushed a lot of DARPA spending in UNI over to companies and forced cuts in basic science.
Biden also did major changes and pushed funding to go from merit based to DEI.
Trump is just a continuation of this and not even the worst ( reagan or W were the worst ).

You'd almost think handwriting involves more human senses than typing and that correlates with memory...

Garbage.

70-90 year old "science" is valid?!?!

70 years ago smoking was promoted as being healthy, plastics were a wonder product with no hazards, seat belts weren't required in cars, electronic circuits wouldn't get much smaller, there were only a handful of computers, satellites didn't exist.

" anthropogenic climate change" is a theory, not a fact. It's also very, very, very shaky because it's based on cherry-piking data. It's quite easy to "disprove" a theory which is based on accurate data from an incredibly small fraction of time. Every claim of temperature that's more than about 100 years old is an extrapolated guess. For that matter, the records of "accurate" measuring devices are very inconsistent because they don't account for plenty of changes around the measuring devices.

I have no idea what you think you saw "implicated" in what I typed.
My comments stand alone, there's no implication.

Logical fallacy much?

Seems like this is blaming the symptom, not the cause.

Perspective from a Gen X entrepreneur:

Most "employers" are staffed with people who do not understand the primary principle of long-term success, let alone productive culture.

Gen Zers don't want to entangle themselves with people who cosplay business with lousy personal lives and crushing debt.

Sam, I would have saved you 180 million USD if you'd asked how to meet the stated goal.

Tell you what, how about you cut me a check for 1 million USD because this will save even more waste and reach the stated goal:

U.S. average lifespan is about 10 years less than that of people who live in countries with stricter food purity laws.

Outlaw the food additives (6 months to phase out, not a year or two, which looks like the FDA trying to prevent change while giving lobbyists time to bribe cancellation of the changes) and move to local small-scale farming and baking, including smart hydroponics; not the electricity gobbling motorized tower buildings (which might have been a way to discredit hydroponics.)

Bonus: Create local jobs and reduce energy and pollution from long-distance transportation.

The telephone. And at grocery stores. And obtained car and home loans. All freely.

Government is after these companies for encryption, which the companies claim it is about privacy. But this really should be about security. By using these services, you are nearly guaranteed that end user is who they say. What is needed is for governments to hand out a packet of vetted digital certificates and then use these in various services/applications.

China is pushing massive amounts of effort on AI for industry and military. Doing this should not be an issue. However, these ppl are likely to be a detriment to this. So best thing would be to do a NASA/USAF kind of thing. Split the group into 2 with those that fighting military involvement and put them in a group devoted to industry, pure development while other group continues to do pure development but in all areas including military. For this 2nd group, put in ppl with security clearance.

This has been claimed multiple times over the last 15 years, but their goal is 1.75 TW of coal plants. It will return to adding 40-50 GW new coal plants / year next year, if not this year.

NASA should be creating standards for private space. Not just space suits but even docking, sat capture, etc is a mess.
