CHART OF THE DAY: The Government Money That Built The Internet Is Going Away + Mary Meeker's Brilliant, Tech-Centered Turnaround Plan For USA Inc

[mEDITate-OR:
miss two critical points/issues/questions:
First, where had most of our job growth R&D funding come from in the past?
Second, is THAT type of R&D spending increasing or decreasing?
Third, why has that change occurred?
Fourth, what will result?
---------
The answers are suggested to be:
1st = technological R&D using Govt funding.
2nd = going down, except for defense, a lot.
3rd = we are on a "War footing", not on an "Economic Industrial Policy" program.
4th = As the guy on the corner, with the sign, tells U.S.:
    The End is Near.
--------------
The 1st two articles introduce Mary Meeker's Turnaround Plan for U.S.
The 3rd introduce you to her charts & argument.
This is a MUST read.
