One of the concepts essential to molecular manufacturing is that of a self-replicating manufacturing system. That concept has lagged behind in its acceptance.

A potato can grow quite easily on a very small plot of land. With molecular manufacturing, we'll be able to have distributed manufacturing, which will permit manufacturing at the site using technologies that are low-cost and easily available.

Manufacturing takes place in very large facilities. If you want to build a computer chip, you need a giant semiconductor fabrication facility. But nature can grow complex molecular machines using nothing more than a plant.

The other advantage is that in conventional manufacturing processes, it takes a long time for a factory to produce an amount of product equal to its own weight. With molecular machines, the time required would be something more like a minute.

I am no party man in this matter in any degree; and if I have any objection to the motion it is this, that whereas it is a motion to inquire into the manufacturing distress of the country, it should have been a motion to inquire into manufacturing and agricultural distress.

Danger
No danger can remain sustained,
By anyone 'claiming' to maintain faith!
That is unshakable and daily paced.
With an awakening that can be traced,
To the Almighty Creator.
And those are abundantly displayed.
In a significant magnificance,
Cosmically embraced.
Born from a beauty this subtlety is!
Condoned in an acceptance.
And mystifies.
Complete with a gracefulness,
Those conscious can not explain.
And too unsuitable for conflict...
Those insist,
With a contradicting implementation of it.
And a manufacturing of weapons resisting...
Their impacting wishes to attract danger!
