We pay the goverment to Tax us and now we pay the goverment to pay for the banks to rip us off. Interesting approach, we give money to the banks for them to charge us high interest rates on mortgages and when they mess up they ask us to give them more money so they dont go broke and keep the interest rates even higher. So in the end the Bank of england lends more money but they still take the same money from us. Maybe, just maybe inst the bank of england increasing someones profits ?
The main problem lies in the western way of doing things. We have created and invented lots of things including the internet, Cultural revolutions, lots of ideas. But when did they really created this inventions, 60s, 70s. We have gone to the moon on 1969 and now we cant even guarantee that the rockets work . The Internet still works on V4 IP's and we are running out of addresses. Virtual machine software like vmware has been used in the old mainframes for ages. So not really nothing new besides more of the same but with more colors (Look at Mac Leopard and Windows Vista lots of new old features), by the way the IPhone is a PDA we already had those too. The companies are getting money from old ideas and not spending on creating the advances, not real R&D, fast cash of the same stuff. We are even going back to nuclear power, really advanced, NOT. Now companies are afraid that they will loose control of the cash cows. If you had good new things to offer you wouldnt worry about the old ones. And now there is china we are trying keep them away from making the use of the same concepts on their products, and yes we dont produce anything anymore they do, all made in china. So the only thing we have in Copyright so we do everyhting possible to retain status quo. This is all very sad. This should work like some other industries, 5 year of esclusivity and after public domain, this will make them evolve and create new things. If we did this we would not need to block the internet traffic. I reminde everyone democracy is the power of the people, people can change things and it's up to them to make shure the change happens
Creating monster databases never worked and never will, people must understand that you need to keep the resources distributed and just do the interpretation and comunications layers. Trying to bring togheter diferent datamodels, working approaches and procedures and create one that everyone has to implement will be too costly. Gernerating event management, services layers and having XML appliances can solve the problem a lot cheapper without having to build monsters.
