  • WOW!!
    that would be great for construction workers.
    In fact it would allow construction workers to work later into their years and without the side effects of bad backs, carpel tunnel, etc.

    UMM.... but not for soldiers. Why are they thinking about soldiers???

    The military gets a lot of funding here in America, a little over 40% of our tax dollars. So soldiers are going to be first priorty with this pro-military research.

    The robotics are interesting, but I agree, would be much more helpful with jobs stressful to the body.

    I'd like to see the US step back from the arms race, because as we spend so much money on this. It will forever require an enemy.

    "This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.
    In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. "
    -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961
