In regards to that poll. Probably a significant number of them want to return to a time before those tech were around, while still getting their daily dosage of fearmongering and propaganda news shoved down their throats via from the TV and the radio.

Seriously, the good old days the older generations like to talk about when they were younger. Whether it's the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and beyond. We tend to look back in time with fond memories, remembering the good times and experiences we've had. But if we magically went back in time to relive that era, it wouldn't take us long to remember the stuff that sucked back then and is lacking of compared to nowadays.

I'd bet $100 that if 70% of respondents got their wish and were sent back in time to their desired time period of their youth. It would only take a month for the vast majority of them to regret their decision and choose to come back to the present.

What the majority of these americans really mean is they want to live without social media. Cellphones and the internet are not the real issue.

Your probably right about that. I do view social media as the #1 problem on the totem pole of new tech coming out over the years.
