as technology gets better, the people think its an excuse for them to get lazier mentally and physically. Physically...maybe, I mean, automation is great! Its what gave us scales, and digital imaging, automated construction, sewage treatment, etc..., but mentally, people should be MORE educated and MORE understanding about the things they surround themselves with.
Instead, we get consumerism crap, pandering to the laziest common denominator. Easy money. Idiots, stealing from idiots, keeping everyone stupid.
Ask any consumer about how their TV works, or god forbid, how their automobile works. Ask any mother how something basic; like plumbing, how does it work? They use this shit every day. You'll get the same fucking answer
"Hurr I don't know, but it gets the job done!"
