Ep. 95 - The Silicon Valley Mindset
In this episode we talk about the culture and mindset of Silicon Valley. How revolutionary are the ideas coming out of Silicon Valley? How socially useful are the products and services of our great innovators? Does the drive toward innovation become fetishized, blinding us to the fact that (in many cases) we don't suffer from a lack of bold, creative ideas but from a lack of political will to equitably distribute the resources that are already available.
