Significant Home Improvement Of The Family Unit or Not?
Hi y'all
Was talking to my Uncle a while back and he raised an interesting question.
What is it, that households have now that they did not have 100 years ago?
meaning what significant improvement has advanced/devolved the family household to date?
Basically, what significant bit of technology is now in the home that was not there 100 years ago?
He pointed out to me that after all the trillions of dollars, sweat, blood, and tears, wars, billions spent on space exploration, scientific research, escalating arms race etc...What we have is the computer, and has it really benefited the family unit?
You decide, was it really worth all that heartache for a computer in the household? or have we all been sucked in, yet again?
I'd like to read your thoughts on this.
Regards...
