Teen pregnancy would almost be eradicated because for the first time we wouldn’t need to simply succumb to our desires and cravings pushed onto us from the media and society in general.

It’s easy to put the links between the increases in mental illness, depression, ADHD, and the like, with the speed of the modern world.
