I wonder if this kind of thing, while momentarily painful, can't benefit society in the end. I think WWII was horrible, but it might have kickstarted civilian aviation. California's PG&E electricity prices are a travesty, but there is a real market for solar panels in california, which means solar R&D is being funded. Chip shortages are causing real investment to be made in fabs now, which means better designs and cheaper products 10 years from now.. Electric cars need batteries, so battery tech has gotten a real boost and we get better batteries for all kinds of other things. The pandemic ... mRNA for cancer? |
