Those of you infatuated with technology, do not yet realize that the soon and ultimate result of technology, will be the loss of freedom--not just through surveillance, but in numerous other ways, ways that are already happening.
When machines do all the work--and that day is fast approaching and will arrive within the working lifetimes of many here--how will you find a job? Most of you won't.
You'll be on the dole.
There will be no way for any of you to improve your lot through hard work, because there won't be any work.
