WHAT would YOU do?

For the record, those features are what market research deemed buyers want. Most likely the under 40 age set.

If that's so, then society's in trouble for sure.
A lot of younger people are not ones to think past their noses about consequences, and their lack of common sense.
They're born into technology, with their cellphones, apps, computer games, and touch-pads, and "virtual" reality.
I can see clearly what's happening to society, like looking through a window.
And I blame corporations for feeding this crap to the public, caring only about the revenue they'll gain from it.
Again, it's all about control, about conditioning, and leading society into a world of potential doom.

I'm so glad that I'm old and only have whatever time left before I see how bad this all turns out.

Matt, I wouldn't be concerned. Not our problem,. We'll be gone.

But in a way it IS our problem.
Besides it being annoying to us, it's also disruptive to the way we've always lived, and have been comfortable with.
The same goes for all that aggressive advertizing and marketing....
I get maybe 5 minutes of watching a tv show that I'm interested in, and then 5 minutes of several "Won't you Donate" because the poor dogs, elephants, sick children, polar bears, war veterans, starving old seniors, etc etc....
It only costs just 63 cents a day!
Something's wrong with this type of thing.
Thank Panasonic for putting a Mute Button on my remote control!

Not for me. Life is short. I want to enjoy it now. I'm out of the rat race. Any of us can wake up one morning to suffering a T.I.A. like my brother in law Sunday morning. He's only 66. Or a stroke, or coronary, etc. He doesn't care either now. Not watching news, doesn't want to know it.

I'm out of the rat race too.
And I also want to enjoy what I've managed to accomplish over the decades.
Yet, I've got more things that I want to do, which give me a sense of enjoyment.
I'll be 73 in March, certainly not getting any younger, but as long as I'm breathing I'm determined to go on.
Thankfully, I have some family left, and good friends around, which helps.
