>> But let's face it, if technology really did advance to Kurzweil's singularity in the near future, it would be a tragedy. The vast majority of the people on this planet refuse to take responsibility for their lives. They still expect the government to take care of their basic needs. As a population, we have reached the combined maturity of a 14 year old teenager.

I really can't argue with any of this. At least as a nation, we are regressing at a fast pace. While me may learn more, we have become a very selfish, impudent group of people.
