We live in an information and knowledge-based economy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Well, I tell young people to be successful today that, first of all, that what you learn today directly impacts what you earn tomorrow. This is a knowledge-based economy.
In the new economy, information, education, and motivation are everything.
The more we can organize, find and manage information, the more effectively we can function in our modern world.
There is an enormous market demand for information. It just has to be fulfilled in a way that fits with the technology of our times.
I'm a great believer in the competitive system, and think that competition will bring us greater innovation and put American industry in information ahead of everyone also.
I think that we live in a highly specialized, technologically advanced society. Highly developed societies tend to have very remote understandings about what underlies our prosperity.
We know: of course, with regard to the market and similar social structures, a great many facts which we cannot measure and on which indeed we have only some very imprecise and general information.
We are buried beneath the weight of information, which is being confused with knowledge; quantity is being confused with abundance and wealth with happiness.
We are drowning in information but starved for knowledge.
We're not in an information age anymore. We're in the information management age.
