School, Police and Hospital

Summary:
    In the field of education, police and medical care, innovation must not be stopped.


In Martin Luther King's famous speech Beyond Vietnam -- A Time to Break Silence, delivered in 1967, he brought forward the concept of "wisdom, justice and love", which serves as the motto of my life and, in my opinion, the ultimate, immortal direction of human race.

Slow pace of innovation is not fatal mistake in most field; however, serious problem would show up if technological innovation is missed or under-emphasized in infrastructure like education, police and medical care, standing for wisdom, justice and love.

Education is not only about providing truth to people but also about raising the cognitive level of next generation. Cognitive level of an individual depends on many factors like social experience, logical thinking, and most importantly the knowledge possessed, which is directly related to education. Education, including morality education, religious education, intellectual education, ideological education, etc., is the key to successfully carrying out a new policy, putting a revolutionary technology into practice, and resolving social conflict.

Moreover, education is a steady pace towards and the only way to technoscientific progress. Education offers knowledge and information opportunity to grow and blossom. For example, the more money spent on higher education, the higher the budget for campus equipment and for R&D will be. It is a positive cycle: government pays more to provide better learning environment for students and more advanced equipment for researchers, so that scholars are more dedicated to knowledge and professionals would contribute more to the society. Their scientific founding and technological breakthrough benefit government in return.

Medical care is also a essential, basic need of society. If it is emphasized enough, it can be the foot stone of a general, overall well-being; if not, it could be the root of all evil. A wide-spread disease will destroy a nation overnight both physically and mentally.

We witness how Ebola impact us in many dimension. Besides hundreds of death it has caused, which you might already know about, Ebola left serious social, political and economic impact. Ebola effects your interpretation of life and also your physical nature by changing how you react around other people and the way you interact with your surrounding environment. Western Africa suffers from the money loss mainly because of Ebola. There are no tourists visiting, from which countries get their high revenue. Other countries refuse to have any involvement with Uganda and Zaire, so they are left with little trading partners and no help from other governments in their crisis. It is reported that once someone is diagnosed, the disease kills quickly and there is no cure, most likely causing death of some doctors. If medical care is technologically advanced enough, paralysis will be less likely to happen in society and the rest part of will be able to run efficiently.

Similarly, police is another basic need regardless of nationality or social status. Police are important to ensuring the safety and livelihood of cities and communities. They also perform essential functions that maintain the court systems, communications system, and are the first line of defense to maintain civil obedience. Innovation is needed in policing equipment and policy to provide a peaceful, just environment for R&D and other technoscientific progress.
