As far as the rest of the species on earth are concerned we stopped doing anything worthwhile a long time ago.
How much of this technology can we shoot into our arms before we are totally spun out or are we already. Will we as a species always be at some degree of technological poisoning and in extreme cases techno overdose?
I do not hate technological advancement. Its just that the groups steering it are not human friendly. The disposable unit society is not healthy. None of the consumer products that we made today are going to be here 50 years from now. Its junk. The kind of things that we are making degrade our environment. They degrade our body. Infectious diseases are down. Autoimmune diseases like arthritis, allergies, diabetes, MS, and crones are exploding. 1/3 Americans will have some form of cancer in their lifetime. 1/150 is autistic. Who knows about aeschburghers syndrome.

I put forth the theory that the more complex a society becomes the worse life is for any individual caught in that society. Until it gets so bad that people don't even give a fuck anymore and society collapses no is cannibalized. Our society is cold and calculating. Its powerful enough to trap us now but it is spun out no longer progressing. Waiting to be blown away by the next magnitude of baddest men alive.
