Crash Programs  
This is still the only country where people say with a straight face that anything is possible—and really believe it.
—Senator Lamar Alexander, 200

 
 
Importance: Markets under-reward advanced research. It's important to correct this without getting diverted by wasteful subsidies for scaling up existing technology.
Main Ideas:
The market fails most on the advanced research.
Markets are quite good at gaining returns to scale from niche sales.
