Thought of the Week:
If a country had the printing press and the magnetic compass in 1500, it's a pretty safe bet it has a strong national economy today … As China's history has shown, when governments stop killing innovation, good things happen. Technological change has also dramatically speeded up, and lower communication and transportation costs make it cheaper and easier to borrow advanced technologies from other countries -- allowing societies to leap forward.
