Technology/creativity and Capitalisem don't mix well

   Cars, computers, and cell phones require creativity and technology to be produced... it takes capitalism to diminish and destroy them. 

It took about 100 years to create the most perfect car... the 1997 Volvo 850, and it has taken the Ford Company and now the Chinese to destroy it with too many electronics and computers. You see, it is going to take the computer industry about 100 years to create the perfect device, although Steve and Waz almost had it made, until the venture capitalists got ahold of the company. 

Capitalism and 27-year-old whipper snappers are trying to make their mark, and lots of money in the computer and iPhone industry are destroying the Silicon Valley dream.
