I'll make this short, sweet, and to the point. The Human Race, is by nature a lazy race. We, as in, ALL humans, strive to make our life easier. I'm well aware of monopolies and their effect on us. I'm also aware of how technology has changed our lives. If you think that you, or I don't have it easy? Go check out the Amish. Ask them about why they don't have autos, or computers, electricity, running water, internal plumbing or any other item you and I take for granted on a day to day basis. Live for a year in the middle east in a tent, with none of those items and tell me that you'd not be thrilled to have a toilet to sit on again.

We're lazy, we've always been lazy and damn it, we WILL always look for something easier, more convienient that can do more.
It doesn't seem to matter whether the topic is international affairs or computer science, when the discussion degenerates to grandiose and overgeneralized assessments regarding "human nature" it's time for the thread to die, at least IMHO.
