I would guess two reasons, it doesn't qualify (Disregarding anything that would be worst due to the fact that it kills or physically harms people), and tobacco is not an invention, but a plant. (I think).

I'll go for the DVD-TV in the car. The car was the last place family could interact with each other without a TV blaring on eating up attention. Apparently parents get sick enough of talking to their kids that even that is too much time now.

A question that came up today that I thought was worth some thought. Disregarding anything that would be worst due to the fact that it kills or physically harms people, what would you say is the worst invention for mankind, as in what would we be better off had it never been invented?

After thinking a little bit, I was able to come up with my own answer, but am curious to see what others say first, and if anyone comes up with the same answer.

neckties - uncomfortable, get dirty

high heels - look uncomfortable

the keyboard-guitar - is there an actual name for this contraption?

bottled water - ever proven to keep people healthier?? nice public health mindfuck

qwerty keyboard - yeah i know WHY it was invented but still i wonder how much more technologically advanced we would be as humans with a more logical keyboard

letter 'q' - worthless, especially without a 'u'

Yeah, people in New Orleans should have just started drinking the water they were standing in after the hurricane, it wouldn't have made a difference.

my answer was the alarm clock....

its my belief that people are much better off when they naturally go to sleep when they are tired and wake up on their own. This would make strict schedules pretty hard, but i'm not really a fan of that either and think that if we all just operated on a natural schedule we'd be just fine. Things got done before the existance of clocks, but oh well.
