I hope the optimism expressed in "A Truly American Future" by Art Robinson is the way of the future.

I would hate to see the individual "Freeman" overcome by the burdens placed upon us by the obsessive and unsustainable government growth and intrusions into our very homes and work places.

God Help Us All,

As economist Julian Simon observed, people always produce more than they consume

Julian Simon doesn't get out much, does he?

Whoever wrote this article is a complete fool.

His valuing of modern technology shows no understanding of what is important in life.

Technology is mostly the business of making more of less, and that is usually a more of lesser quality.

In the process, our lives become burdened with increasing complexity and the natural environment pillaged and polluted.

We may have no choice but to continue to develop technology to cure the ills created by technology, but I very much doubt this process can go on forever.

And despite what scientists tell us about the statistical probability of other technological civilizations existing in the universe, I suspect any civilization that reaches the level of technological development to be able to communicate wirelessly, may be only a century or two or three from self-destructing.

So though there may be vast numbers of planets that should support life and “intelligent” civilizations, the odds of signals from another planet’s brief technological window coinciding with our technological window to hear it, may be slim to none.
