Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


We constantly hear about how our country has "lost the edge" in manufacturing, etc. Well, it appears that we have a chance to BE the edge in a brand new industry, which I think is neat:
Quote:

An economic sea change is underway in America right now. It’s based not on the outward-looking thinking of the country’s industrial past, but on a new, inward perspective driven by the kind of entrepreneurship and scientific innovation now at work in the amazing new field of nanotechnology, an industry whose recent and projected growth rates are simply breathtaking.

Indeed, by 2014 nanotechnology will boast $2.6 trillion in global revenues, representing 15 per cent of all projected worldwide manufacturing output. Just consider that in 2004, total global revenues in the field stood at $13 billion.

Within this expanding framework, emerging R&D players such as Nano Labs Corp. are leading the way to industrial growth and investment opportunities holding untold promise for a new American industrial revolution. It’s no idle claim.

We’re talking about a revolution promising advancements that not only impact virtually every industrial product and process, but the lives and goods of everyday consumers. Changes may far exceed that of the first industrial transformation, which began more than 200 years ago. But instead of steam engines, oil wells, and automobiles, this revolution involves innovative technologies and the manipulation of matter and molecules at scales millions of times smaller than the words you are now reading.

The recent presidential debates tell a story about a nation has been looking outward for some time and licking its wounds. From U.S. manufacturing moving offshore and the financial
tumult of 2008, to a $16 trillion deficit, joblessness, and the rise of China as an industrial titan, America appears to be fast slipping as the world’s economic superpower.

Yet within the framework of debate issues, another story is taking shape - a story about a country that is looking inward to its strengths in more ways than one. Truth is, Republicans and Democrats agree that America has not lost its mojo as a can-do nation of innovators, individuals and enterprises with the ability to pull together and cross aisles to overcome adversity and achieve great things.

So it is with inwardly-driven developments in nanotechnology.

For all the evidence of a system of government that is “broken,” there is equal evidence of an America that is set to lead a new global industrial revolution, with Nano Labs being a prime example of how U.S. leadership will be sustained. http://www.theamericansignal.com/


So maybe there's hope for us, after all...IF we play it smart and get on the bandwagon!

Freedom is Important because People are Important


Hello,

It is good to hear that we have a presence in high tech manufacturing. I hope we can expand our percentage of the market in years to come.
