Okay, you had me up until > up to and including a technological singularity.

Please...please stop this Ray Kurzweil religious BS. This will most likely not happen within our lifetime and I sure hope it doesn't. The Singularity is based on the notion that we will all have access to immortality, knowledge, etc.. the beautiful concepts we are already losing access to (See SOPA, PIPA, freedoms getting taken away, etc..)

The 'sheeple' will never get to reap the benefits of 'The Singularity'.

You had Internet2 in '99?

I watched Rands speak at CUSEC in 2011 in Montreal. The way he speaks is similar to the way he writes. His thoughts are though-provoking and insightful, generally teaching you at least one new thing you hadn't known before.

Could you expand on this?

I see your point and I agree with you. Look over the article describing the bankruptcy announcement, it states that "Some 15,600 jobs are expected to be cut."

That is quite damaging for a company of such degree and the family of all those employees.

I think the lesson here is that it's important to be close to your employees, regardless of how rich you _can_ be.

I found his stance to be quite smug but he got his opinions across. I agree with him that it helps the 'normal' people interact with each other without jumping through loops but I think that is more a benefit than a critique.
