The largest companies in America used to be General Motors, Standard Oil,
and Carnegie Steel, with a few railroads thrown in.

Now the largest companies are Disneyland, Facebook, and [wince] Apple.

Can there be a better indicator of the degeneracy that has befallen
modern society?

I have a mild case of eczema and so I visited the dermatologist to
renew my prescription for some skin cream.  It was a large clinic, and
as I sat in the waiting room I watched all the demented riff raff swiping
their tiny screens with faces all aglow in some minor ecstasy.  It was a
sickening site.  They seemed more like retarded children than inhabitants
of an advanced civilization.

And they were probably all Apple products!

Yes, the degeneracy screams loudly.

No.  You have misunderstood the point.  I am solidly in favor of craftsmanship
but the world of capitalist mass production is not.
