Technology: Solitary or Sociable?

Net neutrality is the principle that Internet service providers treat all data on the Internet the same. They don't charge differently based on user, content, website, and platform. Canada has allowed, to some extent, usage-based billing; Chile changed its law to preserve net neutrality, followed by the Netherlands and Slovenia. Opponents of net neutrality claim that regulations deter investment and flexibility in improving broadband infrastructure in a modern marketplace. Today, in the US, the FCC voted to repeal net neutrality. What are your thoughts on this decision? What are the implications and what do you believe will be the effects? Do you support or oppose net neutrality?

A large factor in the rising unemployment rate is the increased use of technology. Today, businesses often employ robots/technology as a cheaper and more efficient alternative to the employing of people. As a result, the number of young people seeking degrees in STEM is increasing as well. But for those older than the millenial generation, who don't have the time or money to re-enter college or get a new degree in something more relevant, are losing their place in the workforce. What are some ways we can combat this unemployment and help encourage more "blue-collar" jobs or substitutes for blue collar jobs today?

As reported by a recent BBC article (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-40835663), by 2100, extreme weather could kill up to 152,000 people every year if the effects of climate change continue at the current rate. Southern Europe would be most affected by extreme weather conditions. What, if any, do you believe should be the next step? Do you believe that people will be able to adapt to rises in temperature?
