All this is very off-topic, and I'll join you in it.
>>You don't like crime -> you pay In the US this usually means that if crime goes up, so do #cops. This helps. Yet it doesn't take away the reason for comitting crimes.
In the USA there is always a percentage of people who do not do as well as the rest. These 'losers' know this. They may not be skilled in 'living in society' but it is often thrown at their faces that they don't do well. They are often rejected and do not have a lot to lose. This is the key issue.
Why would you care about anybody if they don't care about you. Here is A MINDGAME: think about different groups (in/outside the USA, different status, education, social group,...) and decide how much you care about them. Would you give food to a beggar? most people don't. Would you give food to a good friend? Yes. To a neighbour? Yes. Someone you met at a summercamp 10 years ago... THE POINT: caring for each other has a limit, and in the USA the limit is low. Even if something is potentially lifethreatening (like being sick) care is not always given.
So there is a large group of people who don't care about you and you're wellbeing because you don't care about them. So far, nothing is going wrong. Now here comes the 'loser'-group. They have nothing && don't care about you: they sometimes commit crimes... QED
Very good comment, that some technology cannot be the issue. When your model of efficient data communication between computer components cease to work, you adjust your model (ie change architecture). An indication of the need for this is (the earlier mentioned) 'infostress' (bravo for that). My 20 mEuro
At the '98 CEBIT I (indeed) saw a cyrix processor being cooled to about -35 C. The basic principle was different though. They compressed air, removed the water etc and let it decompress via some sort of expansion path on top of the processor. The system was quite small: about the size of a large computer.

The structure of an IC is already 3-dimensional with all it's via's, bonds, doping etc....
Europe doesn't need crypto if we keep speaking french :)
The idea to sign messages is appealing to me. It's also a very possible idea.
The difference between the net and (A-)I is #abstractionlevels (that is: for starters)
Who sais human I is a big challenge, maybe we're just to dumb to figure it out ;)
