Have you ever heard someone talk about "fighting the system?"
You've probably heard a lot of phrases along those lines recently, especially with the Occupy protests going on now. There's a lot of talk of things being unfair, and shrouded in secrecy.
So, what's the fix?
Co.Exist has an interesting post about a proposed solution - robots. Yes, seriously.
And it's not a bad idea, I don't think. They're right that "we could turn to robots, whose cold logic would override our selfish needs." Of course, the data source is going to be the tricky issue there.
Take a look at the article, and imagine a future where computers could weigh all the factors without any messy emotions or lobbyists, and tell us which decision would be in the best interest of society. Could be a good thing, huh?
