Having on or two children is better for the environment and saves one money plus more time to nurture the one or two you have.

@senorlobo1 No I am not a "creationist" either (I dont form 'pigeon holes' beliefs handed to me). I dont kill people either, I was simply pointing out your mind has been contaminated with a Darwinist ideology. Its a religion and it  has been responsible for millions of dead massacred, the Nazis are only just one part in this equation.

And if you one of these fools who think Charles Darwin actually came up with the 'theory of evolution', you might want to check out his grandfather.. Its all BS!

Another reason why I dislike high-tech. Because of difficult.

I was Toyota mechanic 20 years ago. Cars have progressed, and be complicated, so its maintenance has been difficult. I gave up.

High-tech requires us high ability though my ability is just ordinary. I got neurosis (- -. So I prefer simple life and easy technology.

@lovebigboobs29 I don't say "all technology is bad". There is good point and bad point. It's depending on use of technology.

I hope technology progress to good environment.

Do you know humanoid robot? It's Japanese invention, but I'm not glad even though I'm Japanese. Science sometimes looks go out of way recklessly.

@JumpooMouse Besides technology isn't going to cause people getting laid off. Quality has a factor of why goods aren't purchased. I am american and sorry to say but american made products don't hold a candl to foreign made items. They last longer and are better quality then american made. I have bought both and seen this first hand. I own a honda and everyone of my electronics are foreign made. They last a long time compared to american made.

@JumpooMouse I still love high technolody. Life isn't difficult in my family. Just the opposite. I dont want less technology. I understand your opinion but I am glad for all the technology.

@JumpooMouse (me) Off course, there is a lot of problems. 1st, If only a country reduces production, the economy must be worth than other countries. So all countries must reduce production in the same time. I know it's so difficult.

[JumpooMouse]

@lovebigboobs29 I see.

By the way, high-technology increases the amount of production, and causes overproduction. The overproduction means the shortage of demand. So the products cannot be sold out. You have to down the price. Your work will accordingly be hard and your income will decrease for cost down. Life becomes difficult.

High-technology also can reduce the numbers of workers. So, a lot of people lose them job.

This is my personal opinion.

@JumpooMouse I like to work because work gets us money. Therefore we can buy whatever we want and pay our bills.I don't want to reduce the amount of products LOL.

[JumpooMouse]

@lovebigboobs29 I'm relieved to hear so^^ but...

Developed countries have made too mach food by advanced machinery, fertilizer and something like that. But, it is fixed that the amount of food how much human can eat. Excessive food will be waste. I often wonder why we make food so much. Do you like to work? I don't. I think if we reduce the amount of products by shortening work time, we can rest! (Also work share). I get tired to work<<<lazy me

@JumpooMouse Its not that your irritated me. I am just not concerned about myths of global warming and such. I enjoy my life and not interested in changing it. People blame everything from eating meat to transportation to using power. I am not giving up or consuming less of any of those. I eat meat with my meals(not changing that) I drive whereever I need to go. I use electricity as I want its not like I leave my lights on 24/7 but I am happy the way I live.

@lovebigboobs29 If I irritated you, I'm sorry. But, I still think if all people consider about environment, better solution will appear.
