I have often pondered why would an intelligent society have planned obsolescence incorporated into the design of there equipment, I mean don't you think it would be a much better world to live in if we never ever had to change a light bulb, or if our automobile plastic dash boards, air vents, or window cranks would not break.
I myself remember not long ago when automobile window cranks were made with sturdy metal gears and never failed, and now they use plastic gears just so they will fail on purpose, so what do you think about it.
