Not to be nitpickety, but you didn't actually believe Gore when he said he invented the internet did you? ???

Considering it was a great Nigerian mind (Phillip Emeagwali) the true father of the internet that figured out how to create the internet, ...I'd hardly go calling it American technology or American know how... just saying.

Oh yeah, ...we Canadians are waaay jealous! We can't wait for our Prime Minister to dismantle the Canadian Constitution, violate our privacy rights, molest us at the airports, and turn peace officers into gestapo-like thugs.

We can't wait to have record unemployment, record welfare roles & food stamp usage. Or see our citizens slowly lose it to the point where they go postal in movie theatres or elementary schools.

Oh ya, ...we're soooo jealous!  ::)

The internet has very, very deep roots in a DARPA project from the 60's, I believe.

And yeah, the "Rich create jobs" meme is a bit tired.

People and risk takers create jobs.

The roots may be there, ...but WHO solved the problem to make it actually work?

in truth, demand creates jobs in a purely capitalist model... but understanding that 'demand' is a relative and manipulable concept one must look to the human-socio complex as the real root of job 'creation'
