Thoreau's View of Technology

According to Thoreau's view technology goes against the natural order of the world. Yes and no, I agree with the fact that technology bring problems to the world but without technology we would still be primitive and we need technology now daily. The advantages of technology are better understanding of everything, easy way of transportation, and more innovated way of finding cures for diseases. The disadvantages are pollution and everyday obsession with technology. I use car, computer, lights, and so on. I can go for a day without technology to an extent.

Civil Disobedience

I'm against the idea of so much money being fueled in the wars and how almost no money is going to the school of United States all around. A way to solve this I think would be to focus more on state unity between different states of the world. We can use Thoreau's idea of not paying taxes for wars we don't support.
