Money drives technology not science

Your so called 'visionary scientists' USE causality all the time ie, "One of the most established principles of logic / science / reality is the principle of causality: something that has a beginning has a sufficient cause".

This is not my own definition but one given by so called visionary scientists, scientific bodies and scientific community. Who's chain are you trying to yank??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_technology
The history of technology is the history of the invention of tools and techniques, and is similar in many ways to the history of humanity. Background knowledge has enabled people to create new things, and conversely, many scientific endeavors have become possible through technologies which assist humans to travel to places we could not otherwise go, and probe the nature of the universe in more detail than our natural senses allow.

Technological artifacts are products of an economy, a force for economic growth, and a large part of everyday life. Technological innovations affect, and are affected by, a society's cultural traditions. They also are a means to develop and project military power.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it is money that drives Technology or advances in technology not scientific visions.
