The New Industrial Revolution: Are we actually ready for this?
in Close to Politics ·
Honestly, who cares about 3D printers or some niche tech hobby? That’s small-time change compared to the massive capital you'd have to sink into it.
If you want to talk about actual business—real money-making ventures where we actually have the upper hand—we need to look at what we have sitting right under our feet: hundreds of thousands of acres of untapped, fertile land and the perfect microclimates to suit almost anything.
You could launch a full-scale startup with minimal overhead right this second, and within a year, you’d be looking at astronomical profits.
And I’m not just talking about the primary crop; think about the entire ecosystem—oil extraction, pharmaceuticals, domestic sales, international export, not to mention the massive boom in medical tourism that follows.
Then there's hemp. You've got industrial hemp for textiles, construction materials, insulation, clothing... hell, even Ford was manufacturing hemp-based caissons back in the '30s!
The ceiling for extra profit is basically non-existent; the opportunities are endless.
Plus, it’s 100% organic. No herbicides, no heavy spraying, no stripping the soil of its nutrients—just pure, sustainable growth with infinite ways to scale the surrounding industries.
We have weeds growing in every single backyard in America just waiting to be picked.
We are literally sitting on "green gold" in our own backyards, yet somehow we're too stubborn or too shortsighted to bend over and grab it, choosing instead to obsess over 3D printers.
Give me a break.
