You Will Be Made to Choose

• A future where there is no more “traditional entry level work” because it’s all been automated, and instead everyone has their own start-up, peddling ideas, small innovations or themselves either online or off-line
• A future where there is increasingly dramatic stratification between those who collaborate and barter at the “low” end, those who have “safe” jobs in the trades and have acquired some money in the “middle,” and those who have been innovative and parlayed that into generational ownership of wealth at the “top”

(Think of Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg’s future children, or the founder’s of Whatsapp.com)

• A future where everyone is computer/social/information communication savvy whether they have the desire to be or not
• A future where education becomes automated and human teachers return to teaching under the trees and and are unencumbered by an educational hierarchy
• A future where retail space collapses, shrinks, and disappears even as family housing units become smaller, cheaper and more integrated with onsite retail spaces
• A future where religion (and genuine belief) changes the lives of more and more people as they shrink from false civic promises and government based fantasies about security, wealth and stratification
