It is already there in China in biosciences. The other sciences and
technologies will happen in due course. As noted in the New Yorker
article Out Of The Box innovations, inventions and discoveries very
rarely originate from and most often cannot be directed by any formal
orgaization be it government or a private R&D lab. Such breakthroughs
and new solutions require talented people, and in these days highly
educated and trained specialists, who have an independent income or
are nauseatingly wealthy. These people no longer have to worry about
making a living, can let their imaginations run wild and use their
wealth to test out their ideas. The talented in China are too engaged
in building their careers, in meeting government and cor****ate
technical goals or in building their wealth first. The time will come
within my lifetime when China too will have talented people who will
be independently wealthy and let their imaginations soar.
