People and Computers

We need to give this relationship some more thought. What do we think of them? 

For most people the answer is simple: they do not want to think about them and avoid this as much as possible. For them, the Computer has only made their lives more difficult and complicated. 

They hate them, although they will never say so. 

We can take that as a realistic starting point: People hate Computers, and they are out to kill them. 

And this explains many of today's problems. The Computer has been forced on us (we think) and we resent its greedy presence. 

This is crazy, but we cannot see this. Our values have been reversed and destructive feels more like constructive.
