Too Virtual?

Imagine a world where parents, kids, work, didn't have to be that way. What if, we could all stay at home, all day and everyday, with no need to do anything constructive with our minds. I mean, there would obviously be sports, with those 1 in a million kids striving to earn millions of dollars, but I mean other than that, student/teacher relationships wouldn't exist, cars would have low mileage, and ratings would be at an all time high. What am I talking about, u ask? I'm talking about a virtual world.



We're getting there. College classes no longer need regular attendance, you don't need to socialize or meet people, you can do all that on this machine! What about work? Well, online jobs are becoming increasingly popular amongst the old folk, so why can't the younger generation be self-employed, earning money without getting up? I mean, it's such a novelist idea, why actually get up off of that chair and walk, risking serious injury or future ones, when you can lock yourself up in a confined area and not ever risk blisters, or papercuts!



What can't the computer do these days? Are we at the risk of breaking off as a society? Well we're already there. Whatever unifies us these days, are things that are all over the internet. We shop, play, socialize, and spend far too much time a week on this machine. Before you start to ask the consquences, besides carpal tunnel syndrome, and severe eye strain, think of the consequences of limitations, of spending your entire life behind a screen. Now, the federal government gives us limitations. The law gives us limitations. But we must fight the unjust rules in todays world, not hide from them. We shouldn't hide from the world.
