I think it's fair to say people without a car are capable of being happy and
don't miss a single thing without which they could not live. Mobile phones
and the internet also allow us to see/hear more of the world and it's people
and, i think just a tad, affect the economy.
This Finalscratch 'debate' is crazy. If people were just a little less
rigid....
his is absolute bollocks. Just take a minute to look back
in the past and see what was the last invention which has
really affected all of our lives, whether we wanted it or
not. Was it the mobile phone? Was it the internet? No it
wasn't. People not using the internet, or not using a
mobile phone are perfectly happy and do not miss a single
thing without which they could not live. The last
invention which really affected everybody and everything
was the car. It gave us the possibility to see more of the
world, it affected the environment (roads, pollution), it
affected the economy. It changed the face of the earth.
All the other new and revolutionary technologies are mere
trifles in our lives.
This comment is insane, NOONE is saying that. I can't understand the
defensiveness this topic generates.
I prefer to play with vinyls, and I don't care to tow
along truckloads of record bags, I feel good with it, and
if you think that makes me a narrow-minded, old-fashioned
conservative, you couldn't be more wrong.
