Can you imagine if we had looked at the rotary phone and claimed that this was the best the phone can be?
Imagine if we had been so in awe of the 8-track that we thought it was the best media for music we would ever need.
What about the camera?
Technology has gone leaps in bounds in so many areas of our lives that it is amazing to compare what we
had 40 years ago to what we have now. Everything is getting portable, rechargeable, and disposable at a
lightening fast pace. I've lost track of the number of personal computers available to me at work and
at home. Look at what we have today compared to just 10 years ago.
You might remember that 40 years ago a middle class family could get by on one income. Uh oh, it seems
that we have lost serious ground here. If the middle class had improved at the same pace as our gadgets,
just imagine where we would be. There is still room for improvement when it comes to putting in a good
days worth of work.
Is our ability to earn a living, maintain a roof over our heads, putting food on the table and provide for our
families going to be the final payment for all the advances in technology?
Time is running out on us fast. Share holders and CEOs love the money they are bringing in from imported
goods when they exported our jobs. It's too bad the middle class didn't keep pace with technology and
the wealthiest in America.

I am sticking with this hands-free data-entry device and still would like someone to volunteer to edit this blog. I'm doing the best I can but it's hard to catch my mistakes and all the times the software doesn't understand me.
