I find the article quite a bit hyperbolic, but it still rings true. Technology is a double-edged sword, and America's obsession with it is wreaking havoc. The more you use it, the more you depend on it. and the more people spend time tapping virtual buttons on touch screens, the more they become removed from the "basics of life", separated from physical existence by more and more layers of "abstraction" - in more than one sense. It does seem like lots of people today don't know how to care of themselves in the most basic way - cook healthy food, grow some vegetables, do laundry or wash dishes by hand, prepare a grandma medicine for one's children when they have a fever... Instead they automatically reach for their credit card and make a purchase. No wonder everything is so expensive when you depend on "services" for every little necessity of life.
