Great, let's do that then!

This can be done by open-sourcing everything, thus allowing all researchers, regardless of nationality, to participate.

Oh, and getting rid of IP law will also be another requirement; this will ensure that no obstructions occur in the future.

so, kadamose, mr smarty pants, tell me this: how do we go from current non MNT to full blown Drexler style MNT? what do you say is the best and most straightforward method?

Sorry, but I don't think the government is mature or honest enough to possess MNT technology – it will only use it for all the wrong reasons, and the rich will continue to get richer, and the 'poor' will continue to rot away as they always have. Therefore, I think it's in everyone's best interests if the government stays out of the development of MNT research…its worthless fiat currency isn't needed anyway.

Nanotechnology should be developed by everyone, not just by a single country (especially the U.S. – which is the true 'Axis of Evil').
