At this point we have large government agencies with thousands of highly paid employees in cushy jobs, and multiple universities with departments of thousands of people in even higher paid and even cushier jobs. All with full pensions and benefits. And they are tasked with figuring things out. But they never make any progress. That is their self-interest. If they ever find the answers they are out of a job.
The inventors, the scientist who is a real discover, they are tremendous threats to 'the establishment'. The USA with our radically free markets and free trade we are always in this state of revolution, where the next iceberg is coming to take out your job. We grew up with it and we are used to it, its part of our culture. But other societies they aren't used to it, and they don't want the technology or science.
In America giant factories get shut down laying off thousands of people from good jobs, and then the town gets wiped out as the money coming into the town is no longer there. We adapted like today most Americans live in these giant metropolises. So even as one job is going down, others are opening up.
