I think this is true, and I think it will result in massive civil unrest. Economic landscape is not the only thing that will change.

It has already begun. I am eternally amused by the "shock" of self-proclaimed intelligent people at recent political developments. It is all quite rational, and quite predictable.

The true outrage comes from the super-rich, who are beginning to sense that their racket is about to be...disrupted. This is the roaring 20s all over again, except multiplied a thousandfold by technology.

Interesting times, indeed.
