Thanks Sherm you put a lot of thought into this. Appreciated !
A lot of people have been asking me about all the big changes that will occur in the next four to six years ... So here we go!!!
1. Automation will put a lot of people out of work. It will necessitate Social Security to be redefined into two different stages. We will call it Universal Benefit checks. People from 18-59 will receive a basic income from the federal govt. People older than that will see social security replaced with a larger amount of money for retirement. There will be no taxation on this income.
2. We will see medicare for all provided by the federal govt ... People under 65 will get the following benefits ...
- Preventative Health Care Coverage - Catastrophic Health Care Coverage - Coverage for Preexisting conditions - Prescription Medication Coverage - The Govt will be allowed to negotiate these prices with the private health care system. Private Insurance Companies will provide the gap insurance of which their employers will offer to split the coverage with them. - People 65 and older will get Eye, Dental, and some additional coverage.
3. The Global Financial institutions like the IMF, World Bank, and BIS will be replaced with Bi-Lateral Trade between countries. Manufacturing in the U.S. will increas dramatically.
4. The United states will close most of the 1000 military bases globally, and other countries will be required to provide more security for themselves.
5. Political parties in the United States will be totally reshaped as technology allows. Congressional folks will return to their districts where they will be held more acountable to the folks of their state.
6. There will be a Financial Transaction tax in the United States that will fund most of the federal govt. The IRS will be minimized, and other federal agencies like the DHS, NSA, FBI, and CIA will be cut dramatically. The states will be returned to a role more inline with the Constitution.
7. Currencies will be revalued on a global basis depending on the wealth of each country.
8. Technology will outstrip the ability of different countries to wage war.
9. Most new cars will be electric, and Renewable energy will become much more prevalent in the world. It will replace the need for "Climate Control" actions.
10. Most importantly, governments will be returned to the people, and Direct Democracy will be common.
