The artificial scarcity around books, science and generally information and education is affecting the trajectory of mankind.

If all had free access to all information meaning scientific papers, books, plays, literature, musical scores and recordings, then we may have already lived in a start trek style utopia.

How much has mankind's advancement already been hampered by the sorry state of affairs?
