    My mum came up with an interesting thought the other day, she said she thought that there was more crime in the country because more and more intellegent young people are staying in thier homes and sitting at the computer, hence leaving the less intellegent young people to run amock.

    Then i came to think of how the internet and "computers" have become in all our homes like a bolt of lightening? 1994, internet first created, by 2000, businesses have become worldwide icons. "The Information Super Highway" allows anyone to potentially learn ANYTHING they want to, great for the criminally minded.

    I think maybe the government had already devised this plan and studying all the options if they helped the internet become a little more well known. By putting them in schools you are conditioning the next generation to become more lax, less confident in their surroundings, because thier surroundings are virtual now, they can have friends that they will never meet and so have worse social skills and slowly become reclusive. while the government enforce harsher laws, tighter taxes, a struggling economy. all the while keeping the intellegnt young people who have no fincial ties, no real commitments, no emotional liabilities, inside.

    In effect they have divided us and put us against each other. The kids were indeed united, then eventually divided. . .


    I'll probably read this back to myself and think "damn i shouldn't get so stoned!".

    Damn. This is how I am a lot. I'm almost twenty but I sound like I'm 16 cause my vocal cords are so underused. I have a hard time saying anything to anyone without typing it out for them.

    Ooh, that's a good one. But unfortunately it falls apart for several reason, which is too bad cause it is a really fun hypothesis. It relies on the (false) assumption that everybody wealthly enough to afford a good computer and internet connection is intelligent while everybody who cannot afford one is stupid. A dressed up version of the old conversative myth that poor people are stupid and deserve to be poor. Additionally, it assumes that folks who travel, live on the road etc. . are stupid.

    Well I am poor and I have a crappy computer and internet is $10 a month. And I have my degree in computers, so I get much older and much crappier and slower computers than mine on the internet for even poorer people who ask for me to set up a computer they bought for $50.
