They Are Right

A little note in the below futurist predictions from the mid 1960s.

But perhaps some people were more on the mark. A RAND report, as paraphrased in the book Your Flying Car Awaits, foretold a future in which "just 2 percent of the population would be needed to produce everything society needed, and only 'elites' would be able to find gainful employment."


We are headed in that direction. Good thing someone invented Facebook - it gives the masses something to do for free other than stir up revolution.
