Considering the Downside of Progress

Sometimes the very things that are expected to help actually hinder and the things thought to destroy bring life. Progress sounds energetic and positive; often it is. Yet there is a possible dark and difficult component to progress.

All of “modern” technology was predicted to make the average work week shorter, end stress, and usher in global euphoria (maybe I exaggerate a small bit). Unfortunately, people work longer for less, are more stressed than ever, and are far from global peace and joy.

People are, in fact, alone together.
