Our lives are now in the hands
Of machines that speak
No words
Have no ears
Are devoid of emotions
Take away our choices
Yet is necessary to make the world
Function more efficiently

Because capitalism in the hands of humans has reached its death rattle and we need machines to do the work of humans to protect profit margins for the shareholders. Unlimited growth = unlimited inflation and I’ve never been even taken an economics course.

I like the poem, I dislike crony capitalism

True, Clentin,
I don't know that we would ever be willing to go back to face-to-face human interaction - the world love efficiency.
Thank you,
