Access and Equity

Wait you mean there are people who can't use social media?? I am sure that even though I ask that sarcastically there are some people who think this is a legitimate question. There are many people all over the world and the united states who do not have access to little or any social media. These are people who either can't have it because they are less fortunate than others or just flat out have never heard of or have a need for any of it. These people are left out on so many things like Miley Cyrus and Harlem Shake videos I'm sure they are having a really tough life and I'm glad there are things that don't bother their daily lives. Yes I am sure there are a lot of downfalls to not being able to be connected to the world but at least they don't have to deal with a lot of the same problems that we have. I am sure many of the people who don't have social media would look at our lives and think we are the poor ones because we put so much hope into our material things and take for granted all of the crucial things we have in life like food, water, transportation, income. There are negative consequences to not having social media that I cannot deny we have a much simpler and fast paced life that many of the poeple who are not effected by social media are being left behind in this world and don't have a chance at ever catching up with the rest of us.
