Describe the impact of improvements in technology and transportation on american citizens.

One of the biggest things is that it has made us more dependent. People rely on cars to get them around, the media to spread news, and online websites to get help on their homework (see what I did there :3 ). Without technology, we wouldn't be able to do everyday tasks "normally". Also, in a way, they have made us lazier. Entertainment has grown to be an important aspect in everyone's life. While it is good to relax a couple hours a day, people have started abusing the technology and using it for far too long. This is also the reason why obesity has been a growing problem.

Therefore, there are both pros and cons for technology on everyday life.

Hope this helped :D
