6. Electronics have become God.

You don't have to have faith,,,, just look the shit up. Even our children aren't maturing in a normal time line, because with cell phones and such, they never have to make a desicion for themselves....just call "The Wizard" and he will solve all your problems. We all have the ruby shoes, don't need to be on a hook 24 hours a day. And I'm a dumb ass that does it also. And with more economic development, competition world wide, profits beeing slashed, it takes two full-time jobs to support one home. And if you are lucky you might be able to feed a child or two. But one of you now days will go without insurance, braces, college savings, or even food. How is that for a translation? I'm glad you asked.
