RE: What if 99% of the World was ILLITERATE???

You don't need to know metallurgy and fabrication techniques to drive a car even though those skills are essential in creating the car.

umm, exactly, there are tools for driving but who holds more power here, 1) the human which created the machine and knows exactly how it works, 2) the machine, 3) or the humans who use it as a tool and just know how to use it proficiently?

number 3 is clearly on the bottom of the totem pole

when the machine breaks, or malfunctions, group 3 is powerless.

group 1 is clearly on top. they can create the machines and tell them what to do

the machines have far more power than group 3, the "user" class.

not learning to program is putting yourself forever in the less powerful user class
