I Feel The Future Trembling

And some people wonder why Boomers are reluctant to turn things over to the youngsters?

Oy

Looking Forward

There are three main probabilities for our future, and in two of them humans are really fucked.

• Some variation of the brotherhood of man
• Skynet
• The Matrix

This may be a pretty good look at the interim period we find ourselves at the beginning of now.

These Kids Today

Looking at what Boomers and GenXers have been saying to the youngsters point by point:

• you'll have to hold multiple jobs
• you'll never be able to buy a house
• or a new car
• there are no paid vacations in your future
• no healthcare insurance
• no sick days
• no paid holidays
• no overtime pay
• you'll always be short on groceries
• you won't have a savings plan
• you won't have kids even if you want them
• no retirement cuz Social Security and Medicare are gonna disappear
• your future holds practically nothing but immiseration and death

And then we sit around and bitch about how nobody wants to work anymore.
