Year 1999 A D (1967)
Out On The YouTube ^

Back in 1967, a film was made depicting what life might be like in 1999 (32 years hence).
All in all, I believe the short film nailed it in many respects. The makers of the film were very prescient in predicting what life was actually like in 1999.
Now let's imagine what life might be like in the year 2053 (just 32 years from now).

The late 60’s and early 70’s was when wages vs. cost of living were highest. A man could easily make enough money for his entire family. Most families must have two incomes now. Hate to say it there were things the GOP was against (unions) and for (”free” trade) that killed that lifestyle off.

Speaking of movies in 1979 Americathon was released. In the movie people lived in their cars and rode bicycles, roller skates and skateboards!
