Many people are now on the internet seeking to get money insted of going out there to apply their skills on the field. i think this is making the youth of today more too lazy. very soon, the whole word will be on the internet tring to make money. imagine how the world will be.

I don't know, I would imagine that the same thing was said about automatic washers, dryers, dishwashers, microwaves, etc. but it seems our society is working harder than ever. I just think the way we work is changing. I do believe the internet has spread the "get rich quick" scams faster and farther, but those are nothing new either. PT Barnum said there is a sucker born every minute, I just think the internet makes it easier for scammers to find those suckers.

making money on the internet can't substitute to the work outside. i only use internet for money making on my extra time rather than roaming around doing nothing...but we can't deny many youth now are dependent to internet.

You may be right on the youth part. But, I am disabled and unable to work. Getting a few extra bucks a month from the internet is very helpful when you are on Social Security Disabilty. I can't even meet my bills on the disability amount. So when I'm physically able, I do a few hours on the internet.
