"What we have here is a failure to communicate." Your observations are illustrative of a free market society, as hampered as it is, still allowing "The people," to consume the best ideas. Sadly, the level of education for the masses has become so diminished that great ideas go unnoticed.

The Gutenberg Press reminds me, as does the Oppenheimer movie, all innovations, as you have pointed out are attacked by those wishing to maintain the status quo.
