Pesimism if u ask me, somebody in his garage with the right computer gadget can change the world in seconds technologically, ask Steve jobs if u see him, Ebola case we contained it, I think technologically we are heading somewhere, it's a gradual accumulating process in my opinion. Never the less time is money ooo. And as akon rightly said "nigga with time don't have money, nigga with money don't have time " it's left for we Africans to choose the categories of "Niggas" we wanna be , ones with money and good time management or the broke ass with all the time in the world to waste.
