When you’re under the gun, bang for buck is crucial. When you have a relatively fat, wealthy and lazy society (compared to WWII and even the post-war 60’s) all the costs go up. Eg you could build roads or railways or ships back then. Now there are 100’s of rules, lobbyists everywhere and everyone wants their cut. Financial incentives matter far more now, since survival has been (temporarily) taken care of. |
