Blog Entry #5 The New Future

Video  My reaction to the video is a very wide variety of feelings and emotions. I feel that our society as a whole have already gotten to this point with the rascals and scooters everywhere. I am not saying they are bad, but when you see people who can or should be walking not it makes me sad and disappointed that people would take an easy way out. What resonates the most with me is the need to yell at people not just because they let themselves get to that point, but because they use it as a disability and take away from the people who really need the help. I believe that obesity should not be a disability, for everyone has the ability to stay in shape it is their choice to not do so. I am a big guy and I do not let my weight hold me back I am doing something about it and trying to control it. This film shows how are society may end up if we do not make the necessary changes. As for the technology, it was way to over loaded with learning, even from a young age, about advertising and big corporations taking over how people eat, think, drink, and feel. I understand there are some medical diagnosis that would cause this action; however, most people do not have those medical reasons and need to get up and walk start with a walker if you need to. I believe we as a society can stop this from happening and i am one who is willing to motivate anyone and everyone i can. Also, i realize that people already rely on digital everything i hope it does not get as bad as not moving your arms and pushing buttons. I do not even believe in using blue tooth for the fact that people are getting away from not having to move around and actually do something, anything even a hand movement.
