On my second essay I am definitely going to add an example from the short story I just finished reading that is entitled "Jaunt". Even though this story ended in a ver sad way there were a lot of things that society benefitted from the teleportation device.
I think the main reasons technology is detrimental to society have to do with pollution, as well as other health risks so I will find an argument to oppose these points. I recall some one also saying that new technology has made people lazy and has contributed to a nation-wide weight problem. Although I am leaning more toward technology being beneficial to society I am going to out examples from Stephen Kings stories on why technology is detrimental. "Trucks", Cell, "Night Surf", and "The Mangler give perfect examples on how technology can be detrimental.
All of these things will be added to my first essay. Some of these things will ofer me a chance to further demonstrate how technology is beneficial to society.
