What are you talking about? Fax is the communication medium of the

Indeed. And every time we devise yet another contrived artifice to keep fax on
life support, we are endorsing this stupidity.
When my native Soviet Union dissolved, the Western management consultants
descended upon our society to tell us that central planning led to profoundly
suboptimal misallocations of resources, and that capitalism is dynamic,
adaptive, promotional of constant change and progress through competition. The
invisible hand always tweaking structure and supply chains, rationalising away
inefficiencies and middlemen.
Yet, I give you fax and people faxing from MFPs documents that begin and end
their journey as PDFs. How is that a triumphal testimony to the preeminence of
market economics? Where's the clarion call to rationality?
"But we sell it because customers demand it!" they say. Customers demand anything that
clogs arteries, mutates DNA, and slowly, agonisingly suffocates kittens. For once, exercise your
moral responsibility as anointed beneficiaries of the gospel of wealth, as captains of industry,
and assert some backbone. Let your perspicacity and insight "trickle down" -- much has
been made of the wisdom of supply-side initiatives in contemporary neoliberalism, no?
It's 2017. Fax must die.
