Regarding your point 1) I agree, but it will never fly in a technology-centric place like this that practically worships anything "tech"! In effect, things like vaccine breakthrough, free sanitation, etc., are much more impactful, but are no longer making headlines or headway, in a way that they should. You have a good point.
As for point 2, I agree too, but that won't fly either (for the vested interest of many in the crowd interested in being entrepreneurs) :-|
Quick EDIT:
>> where are the non-tech entrepreneurs? Are there solutions that don't
>> require computers anymore? Are there ways to get funding for such a solution?
non-tech entrepreneurs? Like hedge funds? ;)
You ask a very good question, but this being HN, you won't find too much publicity on it. If you are interested, here's one guy who works on that spectrum. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Polak
