Technology: Friend or Foe?

Has technology affected our judgement.

Yes, techonology has changed our word demographics in terms of education and jobs. Now, instead of teachers teaching students how to write in print and cursive, they want to teachers to teach children how to type on a keyboard. Also, there are a lack of jobs for individuals due to the way technology now works for us. There are now even robots doing medical procedures in hospitals rather than having trained inviduals do the work in operating rooms.

You can also see the way technology has affected us when you go into any store and give them cash. You can see the cashiers struggling to give money back if their machine is not working because they rely on machines and calculators rather than be able to count up or count back in their minds.
