This article discussed technology in relation to our economy. It also talked about how the wealthy tends to dominate the economy. I would have to say I'm very for the idea of more technology in the world when its actually being used to help people. If new technology is being used to heal people with medical research and provide easy ways for people to do research to continuously improve on our lives then I'm for it. Another thing could be said about technology eliminating jobs for people I think there should be a balance like train people how to do the jobs they have better with new technology not necessarily take the jobs away. In relation to the wealthy we have seen over and over again recently how people are gaining wealth through technology from Facebook to the visionary Steve Jobs. I do know that with the now deceased Steve Jobs his company works with a factory that treats its workers badly. I didn't understand why he would affiliate with a company like that and why not bring those jobs over to Americans who are already in need of work or at least split the work between the two companies. Now I do know its cheaper for them to create the products overseas but when you want the U.S. to buy your products that becomes a moral issue especially when the people who are creating them are committing suicide.
