Yes she did, and most people are confused on why she did that, considering she has the opposite policies in general.
Yes, exactly, I'm confused too. But she did, and that's what is important.
Yes he did, but he is going to lose that one and you know it. The forces of corporate evil is far stronger in the US than in Europe, and they will get that through Congress very soon.
Doubtful. Even if the bill makes it on the floor of Congress, the only way it will be passed is if people don't understand how to talk to Congress. All the stupid leftist hippies will come out saying "Oh, free speech and what naught, evil corporate america maan, not cool". When in fact, the only correct way to go about it would be "Passing this bill will make America poorer and stop us from being rich". And bam, like that, you convinced all Congress to not just dismiss any such hypothetical bill but also strengthen net neutrality.
History explains everything when we are talking about technology. Regulations, monopolies, laws and so on all influence innovation and Europe like it or not, has been far far far behind on that until very recently and is in many ways still behind.
... As if laws matter to any great degree. They have a minimal impact in the real world of technology. They have an impact on how much money will be funneled into this world because it models the market, but laws themselves don't dictate what gets done. There are kids in america doing freaking bioengineering in their homes, not corporate america, random young men who just wanna check things out. The law is irrelevant.
That is not true either. It is a myth that it is easier to "make it" in the US vs other countries. Historically (something you dismiss) it might be true, but today not really. It has not been like that for decades.
Again, historically doesn't matter except for inspiration. And no, it is that way today and it's been this way for decades.
No it aint lol. Does that mean it was the Germans who got to the moon first? Because the technology used to get there was German, not American.
... Just because germans were involved in the process doesn't make it German, it makes it american. America got to the moon, period. It's american.
And how is that innovation?
Again, doesn't matter who does what, if he's native american, american american, asian-american, afroamerican, whatever. It's done in America by americans or people who want to be americans because they wanna be in America.
Elon Musk is not born in america, he was born in south africa. But he left that crappy little country for... what country? America. Why didn't he come to Europe? Europe is far more pro-green energy than the USA. It's far more interested in low consumption and electric vehicles. Why didn't he come here? because Europe is not where IT'S AT. America is where IT'S AT. Where stuff gets done and where the tech world prospers and thrives. The tech that makes all the money and pushes for more innovation. 4k streaming -> Google/Youtube. Where are these companies born in? America. In fact, streaming video as a concept, who made it big? Twitch, netflix, these companies. Where do they exist? america.
Yes, yes, spotify is swedish and it's doing music streaming and that's nice, but they didn't make the market. Netflix made the market. Hulu made the market. They're just using streaming tech to make a market for songs.
Or even a simpler example. Audible. A simple concept, reading out loud... taken and made into a business that makes money and help people. Every culture that had written language had the concept of "reading out loud to someone" but it's audible to made that simple real life concept into a tech business and now there is a market for it. And that makes money and that spurrs more innovation.
You and I can't seem to understand one another. It's like... you keep splitting hairs but that's not what I am discussing. I'm saying that the next BIG THING that's going to make money and be innovative is going to be made in America. And that's the point. That's all that matters.
