More on Who Owns the Future

Chapter 2 of Who Owns the Future brings up key points that are often overlooked in our society because of our dependence on technology. Almost everything in our lives nowadays has something to do with an aspect of technology whether its saving data to the Cloud service or updating your latest status on Facebook. The Aristotle quote involving enslaving people to get things done is necessary even though it isn't always fair, someone has to do each job and this really relates to our society. In our times people are encouraged to do what they enjoy and get a career, not a job. However, this strategy can't be for everyone as there are jobs out are necessary to keeping things running smoothly. They also bring up a good point about musicians and how their roles have changed from just trying to make a living off of their music to becoming symbols of a culture or a counterculture that fans really support and get behind.
