This is a very superficial and ignorant view of the situation. It is not one or the other in reality. When you buy a washing machine a robot took your job. When you buy a sprinkler system, a robot took your job. The computer saves you time when you need to do research. The printer saves you time when you need to write a report. The microwave saves you time when you need to prepare food.

When you buy a fridge you don't need ice delivery for your ice box and the ice man loses his job. When you watch tv instead of reading the paper the paper boy cuts himself. Is that your fault? Do you feel bad? Should you still have an ice box instead of a fridge?

Technology is there for you to take advantage of and make the second frame your life. If you don't do shit but sit on your lazy ass, do the bare minimum, squander your free time and money on entertainment; then you have no right to demand that those who leverage technology to make their life better share their hard earned benefits with you.

inb4 but I don't have the money to buy technology. FUCK YOU, you dumb cell phone having, fast food eating, internet browsing, holiday shopping, vacation taking, luxury indulging, free time squandering bullshitter. Get a job like the rest of us and save up enough to make something of yourself. Earn the respect of people who know you so they will invest in you. Get together with your socialist masturbating cohorts and pool together $20 to start a hot dog stand.

This is rife with misconceptions of such superficial truthfulness that I won't waste my time debunking the elements of your post. Instead I will suggest that you study a bit deeper than the first page on every topic you touched upon in your post, which will eventually lead you to conclusions that are absolutely different from the mindlessness displayed here.

Oh I love this argument. "I'd prove you wrong but I don't want to". The wailing cry of an NPC struggling to maintain cognitive dissonance. It's as iconic as the blue screen of death.

I think it's more the tired words of someone who's been down this road before. Why put the work in if the person you are responding to is just going to brush you off anyway? May as well tell them to do it themselves.

May as well not say anything at all. It's better to say nothing and let people think you are an idiot, than open your mouth and prove them right.

But if you think that is an argument that is more than retarded nonsense, than I assure you everything you believe is wrong and you should do your research to figure it out. Now off you go to do your research.
