  • Technology allows us to conserve energy and more quickly produce goods. What used to take fifty people to do, can now be done by one machine. Is this a good thing?
    • Ryan Clarke
       
      Conserving energy and producing goods quickly is a very good thing because it makes our economy more stable and by conserving more energy we can save nature.
  • Technology does allow us to do so many more things that once couldn't be done. It saves people's lives, but it also ends careers. It runs the world. We can no longer get to town on a horse. We depend on technology.
    • Ryan Clarke
       
      This relates the the novel "Feed" because the characters in the book are relying on technology to get them through the day and even their lives
    • Dan Tusler
       
      When the article says it runs the world, it is not completly true. It directly relates to M.T Andersons themes of technological domination as the feed is a piece of technology and it completly runs society as a consumer.
