Steve Jobs is at it again. He’s an amazing man. What’s great about the new phone, apparently, is the screen technology.

So here’s the deal: We need the rich to drive technology–at least in capitalism.

And I love technology, and things like the iphone have implications that will eventually trickle down into even the poorest people’s lives (at least in our country).

There are two tricks: how do we extend tech to the poorest of the poor around the world? And how do we drive tech (particularly in medicine) in such a way that it trickles down quickly?

I recognize the trickle down effect is painful, but inequality will always be among us. The challenge is accepting inequality but rejecting injustice.

And what the hell does that mean? Ah–that’s for another post.
