But you pointed pain to conditione people, instead of feel fool, feel satisfaction at some degree when made right. So you proposed torture. But I supose you was just kidding...

We've already figured out shortcuts to the reward centers of our brain using drugs. So now instead of going out and accomplishing something to feel good, we can lay around being useless and feel good.
Same with pornography. Men had to be attractive in the eyes of women to have sexual encounters, and now they don't. We'll have less children in the future because men won't be interested in the effort required to attract real women, and women won't have any use for weak and pathetic men.
The direct brain stimulator will allow people to feel good while accomplishing nothing to justify feeling good. That is a very dangerous thing.
