the consequences are listed, but hopefully the logical reasoning between source and consequence will later be expanded upon. Some ideas are poignant: the "man-made shell" (cars could be a symbol!); the "splintering specialization"; the take on acceleration is also to note.

Society can be destroyed when further growth of mass production renders the milieu hostile, when it extinguishes the free use of the natural abilities of society’s members, when it isolates people from each other and locks them into a man-made shell, when it undermines the texture of community by promoting extreme social polarization and splintering specialization, or when cancerous acceleration enforces social change at a rate that rules out legal, cultural, and political precedents as formal guidelines to present behavior. Corporate endeavors which thus threaten society cannot be tolerated.
