Does American culture now totally revolve around entertainment?

---

Not just American culture, much of the western world does. And a lot of the not-so-western world too.

Has technology brought us to this point

That, and social evolution. Ever since Groc wandered out of his cave in search of a woman, we have always wanted entertainment, but it has never before been so monumentally organized.

( people want to be entertained every waking minute, even while at 'work')

If you build it they will come.

People once understood the idea of "everything in moderation", but that's no longer so. We have quickly evolved into the "must have it now" generation. Perhaps we are going back to our cave man roots in that regard - maybe civilization is just an illusion. For the most part, I like that we are civilized, but the acts of man make me think that we still haven't journeyed far from the cave. Perhaps part of us still belongs in the cave. I don't mind - at least the sex is better. ;)

Even more of the same until something topples it. Whatever and if ever that happens....
