Interesting intelligence augmentation (IA) article but an AWESOME social/ethical funding quote

From yesterday's Washington Post article Putting a computer in your brain is no longer science fiction

Zoloth says one of the big risks of technologists funding science is  that they fund their own priorities, which can be disconnected from the  greater public good. Many people don’t have enough resources to fulfill  the brain potential they currently have, let alone enhance it. “Saying  that if tech billionaires fund what they want may inadvertently fund  science for the larger public, as a sort of leftover effect, is a  problematic argument,” she said. “If brilliantly creative high school  teachers in the inner city, for example, could fund science, too, then  perhaps the needs of the poor might be found more interesting.”
