OP is clearly trolling but on a serious note, the issue is poverty-- not a failure on the part of science. I don't have the numbers on hand but at least half of the world lives in abject poverty, if I remember right. That means we're operating on half our potential AT BEST. We have no idea how advanced we could be, the discoveries and insights that could have been made cuz humans are truly a young, idiotic, species. We'd rather cut our nose to spite our face
