Pentagon Needs to Look Outside Traditional Industry to Find Affordable Emerging Technologies, Hagel Says

SIMI VALLEY, Calif.—U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel on Saturday outlined a series of reforms designed to tackle what he views as the military’s declining prowess as China, Russia and others field new weapons technologies.

Mr. Hagel said the Pentagon needed to look outside the traditional defense industry to target emerging technologies that could be developed within budget constraints, a move that some leaders believe could reshape the weapons business over the next decade.

The so-called third offset strategy mimics the resetting of U.S. military priorities in the 1950s and then the 1970s. Nuclear weapons and then a combination of stealthy, radar-evading platforms with precision-guided bombs and missiles allowed the U.S. to maintain a technological edge over adversaries that often had far larger numbers of troops and conventional weapons.

There is no loyalty to the country.

All scientific advances will be stolen.

We break the bank inventing it and the Chinese steal it for pennies on the dollar.

A Reagan can inspire loyalty to country. An Obama does the opposite.

La Raza and worse are undermining loyalty to the U.S.

I assume more Chinese Americans will spy for China based pride for China. I am sure the NYT will feed into it.

All the influence operations and recruitment from the 1930s until the 1980s acted and still act like a slow poison. The assailant perished in 1991 but the poison still did its' work.

IMHO there is not much more to be invented. There is the theory of everything (T.O.E.). IMO that leavesd one thing. How well do the group work together, because everyone will have the same stuff.

After physicists have their theory of everything?

They almost have the science metallurgy down to a total science. There were a lot of things that physicists theorized that they could not hook up with the empirical based science of engineers.

Unless we are able to work with the fabric of the universe, I don't think there is more to be done except fill in the blanks such as genetics and neurobiology.
