RBF Definitions
“recourse of that is that we have to have guns so that the fittest will survive. We have the major nations of the Earth spending on an average a total of $200 billion a year on weapons and means of destruction. Under those conditions we also have the working assumption that because there’s not enough for everyone therefore it’s never said, ‘What can we do to make life successful for people through technology just as we can make war more successful through technology.’ There’s a priority for access to the best resources, the best tools, the best people, the best brains. The antipriority has always been the home front, it had to make do with the materials that nobody else wanted for a battleship or an airplane or everything else.”
