Is science as important as it was back in the day?

Seems like most of our problems now are social and economic. Efficiency instead of innovation.

>. Efficiency instead of innovation.
Same thing.

It's all just memetic evolution - the development and spread of idea. Culture, language, science - all memetics.

It's all crap. I want to be a experimental physicist like the almighty Freeman, but apparently this world is more focused on which bitch on Jersey Shore is gonna slap another bitch. I hate it.

True dat, more resources due to science allows more equality. If there are less resources then people hoard things and discrimination occurs.

Is agriculture as important in the First world as it was back in the day?

Seems like most of our problems are financial, and not as many people are starving now, as they were then...

Do we really *NEED* agriculture anymore?

I would say the biggest lesson learned from the 20th century is that technocrats had no fucking clue what they where doing. So i disagree.

Science solves current problems and replaces them with new problems! We need more science otherwise Super Gonherrah takes over our planet and kills us all!

Science is still important.
