The way things are going the future will be ruled by health & safely jobsworths who will want to ban anything that's either fun, risky or just a tiny bit dangerous. Apart from extreme sports which will get more & more extreme.
So trying to jump out of a plane onto a metal spike without a parachute = good.
Smoking a cigarette or having a pint = bad.

Where every single thing you do will get monitored, evaluated & assessed to bombard you with useless junk you don't want. And where you will be expected to retire from your mind numbingly tedious job at 150 years old having spent the first 40 years of your life in education learning how to stare at a computer screen for the following 110 years.

People will become more & more self righteous in thinking that their way will save an increasingly more & more desperate world.

And in an inconspicuous office somewhere in London some record company boss will get some talent show winner to record Unchained fucking Melody.

I presume you heard about Alistair Darling's proposed tax increase on cider eh. The way this country's going, there'll be no pubs left in five years' time (such is my on-topic contribution to this thread).

Reminds me of something I heard on the news not long ago.. something about UK installing monitoring chips in trash bins in homes so they can collect data and measure waste.

I guess it will evolve into paying for how much waste you produce. Which is ridiculous, being that everything you purchase on the economy will generate waste. If anyone should be charged for generating waste, it's the manufacturers of it... it's not like you can buy everything without packaging.

Screw it, here's the story. I meant to bring this up but I didn't want to start a thread about it.
