Space...the final frontier. |
I haven't written an article in list form in a while, so here it goes. Forgive me if it's boring or hard to read; I tried!. Each bullet point represents an individual prediction:
- Cable Television will die out. My generation is already transitioning to Netflix and other online media sources. There's no way standard cable TV as we know it survives the cut. It costs too damn much and you don't watch ninety percent of the channels.
- Unless the Republicans remake themselves, we'll be voting in a long line of Democratic Presidents based solely on social issues.
- Years of being told that every other country under the sun outpaces us in terms of education/economic output will make us hyper-competitive, ushering in a new Golden Age for the United States (I'm hopeful).
- Our generation will give up our privacy for the sake of perceived boosts to security, as well as easier integration into whatever replaces the internet.
- Airplanes will be replaced by more cost efficient methods of travel, like automated cars and hyper-fast trains.
- Contrary to popular belief, paper books will survive.
