This is How We Live

First of all, I want to say  I really enjoyed this article. Ellen Degeneres really captures the problems we create by trying to make things "simpler". I really agree that things we create are sometimes made for lazy reasons or just seem pointless. However, not all technology is like that, some things are very useful and not pointless. The examples she uses however ( powerbars, moving sidewalk, CD packaging) all seem very useless and either create more of a struggle or are just people being lazy. Who can't walk the extra distances that moving sidewalks  span across? Are we really that lazy as a community that we need to stand still and let the ground move us to our next destination? Ellen makes great points and I really agree with her, also it was extremely funny!
