Michael Tague I hope you're right, but a quick Google search will show you that millennials / gen z'ers earn far less than their parents did at same age, have far less employment stability, far less chance of owning a home etc... Also we're well underway into Earth's 6th mass extinction event, on track for a catastrophic 2.9+ degrees global temp increase, over 40% of world population lives on less than $5.50 a day.I'm not anti-tech by any stretch, but it's worth questioning how much "progress" there has really been over the past 30ish years.I wish the incentives existed for our brightest young ones to develop new technologies for the sake of true human well being and preserving the environment we depend on, rather than for it's own sake.
