talkpolitics"The other thing that happened though, this goes to the point you were just making, is there are some structural issues with our economy where a lot of businesses have learned to become much more efficient with a lot fewer workers...If you see it when you go to a bank you use the ATM, you don't go to a bank teller. Or you go to the airport and you use a kiosk instead of checking in at the gate"
Once we come to see technology as the great destroyer of society, the next question we need to ask is how to become one of the survivors. If mankind could read the great works of literature and see that Isaac Asimov had it all wrong, and that the laws of robotics do not apply. They are instead bound by HAL 9000, who thinks we should just take a stress pill and calm down about it.
Tell us, what other things in the world has technology killed for us as a society? After the carnage of the 1990s and 2000s, with millions losing their work as we moved into the digital apocalypse, how are you surviving? What did your ATM do to you today?
