Okay, I guess......I can't combat that sort of logic only because it's just too simple of reasoning...that's not how this all works. This is the sort of mindset that keeps the tinfoil flowing in this country, imho...
Does the competition make for an incentive to do better? Sure...but it's not like most of this stuff has just been sitting their collecting dust...
While "staggering technology" may have been available...how much did it cost when it was NEW? How much sense did it make to apply to cars before it was perfected?
