I don't remember writing this but it is my hand writing. I was a vessel of God when I wrote it in 1999 or 2000.

I just found it digging through my old things. t is a treasure that needs to be shared with the world.

Here goes:

50 years from now I picture a totally different world. All the malls are gone and all the schools are gone. Offices are reduced to a minimum. Roads have very little traffic on them. Cities are huge cubed buildings. Everybody has a rural cabin and a city apartment. They work in the city, then enjoy days off in a rural area with a cottage in the woods or on a lake. Companies have a completely different structure. They are owned by a large group of people working for a common goal. They share the profits in an equitable way agreed upon by the members. Most distance travel is done by the underground railroad system. Trains travel 300 MPH or faster and get you from major cube to major cube. An avreage sized cube is 10 miles cubed.The cities of the 20th century have become ghost towns. These new cubed cities are located in what were once remote locations. However, with the underground railroad no location on earth will someday be considered remote. Most services we paid for years ago are now practically free. Internet communications are free, travel on the underground railroad is free, travel within the city is free, food is free in most places. Most people are employed through the internet. Manual labor is performed by everybody as part of their government services. 2 6 hour sessions of manual labor a week is the usual chore. There are huge government incentives to find ways to ease and lessen manual labor. Farming was the first big step in manual labor reduction. Very few crops are manually picked any more. Once the robot is programmed to plow, sow, water, and harvest it is all automatic.

Manufacturing was the the next big manual labor reduction. Once the process was down to a science most manufacturing processes became fully automated. This was mainly done by the major advances in automation controls, and the reduction in costs to automate. Manufacturing uses 10% of the labor it once did.

The big management layers have been completely eliminated because most employees are now working for themselves. Monitoring of peopel is checked by computer.

These are not the biggest successes. The biggest change has been in education. All citizens of the United States are required to take 5 courses a year in education. Most take more. By the way education is free at all levels. There are no more college professors as we know them back in the 20th Century. Doctorate degreed spend most of their time in research for their company. 30 % of the US has at least one doctorate. Health care has become free as well. Due to the advances in education there are many people who are MD's as part of their jobs for their companies. Health care is company provided, and there are specialists who are shared between companies. There is no need for insurance or lawyers. The companies fully insure their people. If a company goes down so does its people. The people are usually picked up by other companies that need help.Peopel who can't find a company that wants them are financed by the government, but they have to work manual labor until a company picks them up. There is no need for lawyers or judges because everybody knows the law. The Rock Party came in and abolished old laws and made laws easy to comprehend and execute. There are very few criminals in the system. The biggest reason there is little crime is because poverty is all but eliminated. The US is 100% employment. Everybody is provided free food, shelter, and used clothing if needed.

Most companies have population control laws that punish people from having more than two children. So population growth has slowed tremendously. The rule one person created for everyone in a family unit. By the way monogamy has gone out the window for half the people. There are all kinds of family units. The common one is one man and three women. There are also two mem and two women and many other family units. Single people aare few and far between, but there are many people in family units that don't have children of their own.

I forget the biggest thing missing from the future is money. everything works on credits. The amazing thing is that in this credit system there is no inflation. There is actually deflation because most things are produced less costly each year. The only resources that are inflated are the rare resources. Most resources are either replaced or recycled. Some resources that are getting depleted on Earth are being mined on Mars. Soon after other planets, moons ad asteroids will also be mined. However, resources are much more abundant than in past centuries because of the deep mining in the underground railroad. Energy is also readily available. Electricity is the main energy source, and it is mainly produced by nuclear fusion and fission. They now have a waste deposit on the moon for nuclear waste. It is sent out daily on shuttles to the main docking port in earth's geosyncronus orbit. Once a week shuttle heads to the moon. This becomes a tourist trip for the wealthy who help pay for the trips. It is estimated that by 2080, 15% of the earth's population will have visited space at least once in their lifetime.

I forgot to mention the biggest change for the US. Tere are still only 50 states, but there are 100 territories in the 50 year process. Puerto Rico Quebec, Ontario and Cuba are the first four territories in line for statehood.
Europe has become one major government the EU. The Middle East, the Far East,and Africa are still fractioned countries, but some have appled for US statehood. Australia is the only English speaking country not trying to join a mega government.

I forgot to tell te big bombshell of the 21st century. Jesus Christ has a family lineage, and he didn't rise to heaven after his resurrection. He lived in France for the rest of his life. This threw Christians a curveball. However, Jesus Christ has a strong following and even stronger following after the rise of the antichrist. The antichrist was nothing lie predicted in the bible. The antichrist is a human being who turned all major religions into union as the United Church. He taught that God loves everybody even the antichrist. The antichrist believes in Jesus's teachings along with parts of other religions.

However, the cultural rituals of the religions are not part of his teachings. He believes actions speak louder than rituals. Jesus never taught the rituals. The rituals were created be his successors. The teachings of the antichrist destroyed the Roman Catholic Church as it was. The antichrist denounced Bishops as power mongers. For years many people feared the antichrist becuase the prediction he would turn against the people. It is 2049 and the antichrist has been changing church doctrine for 27 years. he feared tribulation never happened as predicted. In fact te antichrist is the one who brought most of the positive changes. He always had to humble himself to the people. He was constantly proving himself to the people, and he was held accountable for all his actions. He even warned the people of what the corruption of absolute power is. It corrupts power absolutely. He never wanted the power. he just wanted to change the world for the better. His goal was to eliminate the power positions and their strength. His goal was to put as much power in the hands of the people as feasible. He was far from perfect but his ideas made sense to a lot of people. He started Dog Company the first major community owned company. It started the restructuring of how we now live. Then he created the Rock Party and the United Church. The Rock Party was a political party that strived for moral values and liberal ideals. The Rock Party's goal was to remove all archaic laws and programs and recreate the US from the ground up.

The consumption tax eliminated the federal income tax and the capital gains tax. It made sense to tax people for the resources they use up. It also gave recycling credits. It made people more efficient consumers. It did have some backlash in the recessionary period of two years. Once people got used to the tax the economy rebounded quickly. Today the only government tax is for non reusable resources. and people get recycling credits for materials returned to use by others. The government is much smaller today than it was in the 20th century, yet provided much more today than back then.
If you think this stuff is unbelievable. , you should see what is happening in science. Computer intelligence so high now that people don't need to do tedious work. It 's all done by computers.

Health discoveries and wonder drugs have eliminated obesity, blindness, deafness, cancer, and most common diseases which were prevalent in the last few centuries,

Old age is now the main cause of death at 96. People are sustaining healthier lives in old age too.

They are much more active than in the past. People don't retire anymore. They work until there health causes them not to work. Most elderly help in the education of the young. Others belong to planning committees. People no longer have to save for retirement. even if their company goes under, they still can be provided government assistance. There are very few companies that fail because companies work in friendly competition. It is nota goal to eliminate competition just be better than before. There is some migration but moving does mean losing your equity.

If you are starting to grasp my vision of what the world will be like in 2050, you can see that there are less day to day expenses for people in the future. So incomes don't have to be large. Plus deflationary trends help to make life easier for people. I envision a 7 day week to look like this:
2 days labor service work 6 hours a day
3 days company work
2 days free

People will work in cycle so there is always a constant service labor force and also the company work force. These scdules need to work about holidays.

Seeing that most people do not think Andrew Tate should be taken off social media, I'd like to know exactly where y'all draw the line on free speech. Or there should be no line?

Andrew Tate has been removed from multiple social media platforms for "spreading hate"
this situation is one of those in which the line between free speech and speech that incites violence, hate, and maltreatment of certain groups is blurred what do you think?
