Nowadays, technology seems to be almost everywhere we go. With the advancements of cell phones, computers, video games, cars, and iPods, our lives have become much easier than ever before. Technology is created because society always wants to find more efficient ways to accomplish certain tasks. Without technology, humanity would not have discovered things that most of us know today, such as the world, animals, science, and the like. However, society does not benefit much from it, apart from school and work obligations. Technology has become a necessity for all of us, even if it definitely changes our mental habits. Due to technological advances, the United States is becoming more and more dependent on it, which is causing society to become more antisocial and less motivated. Technology is ubiquitous because it has impacted us, especially through communication between others. As a society, we are becoming lazy because of technology; people are realizing that there is no wasted time running errands.
