Do you think that in today's society, there is too much focus and concentration on materialistic things apposed to something more longterm and essential for mankind?
To give some raw examples, Before the ipod nano was created, Steve jobs was quoted saying that he wanted the best and brightest minds to work on developing the next ipod. Now I am in no way disagreeing with his statement or am I blaming this on him, but it kinda makes you think of what importance we place on our luxuries instead of things like fixing the New orleans levee years ago, or working on ways to improve our healthcare.
Truth be told, I'd wish there would be more innovation when it comes to essential problems and not things like luxuries and uneeded merchandise..
Opinions?
