Being engrossed in the present, I think a lot have failed and refused to envisaged, or envision the future such as viz ;
•Bitcoin replacing Banks.
4 years ago there was a lot of speculation that bitcoin would replace banks but realistically the world needs money and bitcoin converts into money needs, all economic chains have their own mutualism symbiosis
•Robotics replacing Man-power.
the future point that you imagine may only be a few things that happen but we are social beings who will never be replaced by robots even in the place of work
•Uber replacing Taxi's.
•Amazon replacing Bookstores.
•AirBnB replacing Hotels.
I feel they simply don't like all of this and are intimidated by the future, do you think so likewise ?
maybe this point will be realized in the future, especially after the covid pandemic
