Reported today in the Houston Chronicle:  New start up in Houston to recycle 1,800 metric tons of lithium batteries to keep minerals in Texas. Capitalism 101 at work. New demand will create new markets (and new jobs). Quit being chicken little about things you just don’t like.

Do you own an electric vehicle?

 Good to see capitalism 101 is indeed working. Your statement about disposal keeping up with technological advances missed its mark a tad….. in space lingo.

If you want to take this even further down the preverbal road, you combine this with Ray Kurzweil’s (Head of Google Artificial Intelligence) “singularity” theory and Google’s Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen’s ideas which are discussed in their book, “The New Digital Age: Reshaping the Future of People, Nations and Business” and you have some serious changes to technology, human intelligence and business coming down the pike whether you like it or not.

It is with humor that you are going against the mantra of the left and invoking capitalism.

No, I don’t. I do a lot of volunteer conservation work that I consider a somewhat of an offset.  I said nothing about keeping up. I was merely pointing out the fact that demand will create ways to be met.

Only extreme liberalism is anti-capitalist. I don’t consider you a fascist just because you are conservative. Only the right wing extremists harbor fascism. But you can paint with whatever brush suits you.

I think the movie “Enemy of the State” should fit in here somewhere.

Yeah, pretty crazy. I think singularity is much more likely than immortality.
