classes--poor, middle, and the wealthy already have it--to rise up and demand
that these technologies be given to everyone in a basically equal manner.
Alexander,
It ain't going to happen. Look at education, space flight, jet travel
and anything else you care to. In the end the ones that want it are going to
be the ones that get it and if that requires the raising of money or
political power so be it.
