My thoughts: Where is the US headed?

After posting the piece on the US not supporting new developments of the internet, I came across an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education that examines the lawsuit bewteen the recording industry and the P2P software manufacturers. The Chronicle piece does an excellent job of examining US history and how looking the other way in instances like this has enabled the US to innovate.

Not surprising, one of the blogs over at Corante, host of Many-2-Many, also has a piece on this article.

So, as I keep reading these articles I can not help but think, could we in the US have become to complacent with “success” are we now to “fat” for our own good? I am generally an optimist, but the Supreme Courts ruling on this matter could be a serious sign of things to come.
