Thing!” Pg. 14 “Her spine was, I didn’t know the word. Her spine was like…? The feed suggested “supple.” ” How does society work?

10 Pg. 113 “No one with feeds thinks about, she said. When you have the feed all your life, you’re brought up to not think about things. Like them never telling you that it’s a republic and not a democracy… Because of the feed, we’re raising a nation of idiots. Ignorant, self-centered idiots.” Pg.47 "Thats one of the great things about the feed-- that you can be super smart without ever working. Everyone is supersmart now " Intelligence
